Kubinka AFB, taken yesterday

Taken yesterday at Kubinka AFB, part of the Army-2021 exhibition. I was politely asked to stop taking pictures after few minutes.

Algerian MiGs and Sukhoi have French markings.

I am not russian 🙂
A large number of visitors were foreigners, including some familiar faces from previous editions of MAKS.

For some reason, I can't see the pictures. If I right click on the text to view the image, it takes me to a site that says:
Changed the host, should be ok now

This is my first time gaining access to the famous home base of the Russian Knights & the Russian Swifts and I was not disappointed!
Free entry and no crowds at all:
I will start with the most beautiful jet ever made:

I was freaking out too :) my son almost fell down from the Tugunska. Some ladders were not secured, and I felt not really safe using them.

Yes the kids loved it, but not my knees after climbing on top of dozens of tanks...😅

Thank you Ken, I spent a lot of time there (from 9:30 to 16:30 😅) climbing on the tanks was a lot of fun!
Quite easy to reach. Express train from Beloruskaya train station to Kubinka-1 in 58 minutes, then a regular taxi to Park Patriot or the Tank museum. The drivers are used to foreign visitors he gave me a card in English with his phone number, I called and he picked me up on the return. I just purchased normal tickets, there is no more foreigners pricing/photography extra like it used to be, Monino as well. No need to show your passport also, only for the bikes rental.

Yes I was dissapointed by the lack of operational markings...
