Interesting! Thanks!
I wish i could look at the room with the rockets that stuff interests me so much. More so then those gatling/cannon guns.
Some time ago it was an administrative building of the Zhukovsky Air Force Academy. I studied there. Being on duty I kept guard about a banner
or storehouse of ammunition. It was the higher educational institution for russian and soviet aviation engineers. Gagarin finished it too. Вut now that beautiful building has taken by Moscow goverment.. It is Russia..
Fake “buran” cockpit.
It isn’t “fake”. It is a prototype, trainer for testing Buran’s technologies. Colonel Basov (who teach us the tactic discipline) was that man who “drive” real Buran during a landing phase from the remote control center.
