Tour program:
Visiting the museum of aviation you can see some especially valuable exhibits. One of them is the Be-6 anti-tank and rescue flying boat. In total, three specimens have survived in the world: in China, in Russia and in very good condition - here.
Another rare example is the AN-71 long-range radar detection and control aircraft. In total, two copies were released. The aircraft can detect other aircraft at a distance of 350 kilometers and at an altitude of 30 kilometers.
The museum has unique exhibits that are not represented anywhere else. For example, here is a complete collection of Tu-22 strategic bombers, there is the first mass-produced IL-86, which in 1974 took part in the Paris air show in Le Bourget. On this plane test flights were carried out - he never carried passengers.
