On the "Staratel" training ground, one of the sites of the military-patriotic festival "UralTank", which will be held on September 9, everything is ready to receive guests: cadets and veterans of Uralvagonzavod. Members of the organizing committee of the holiday made an inspection trip to the site, where they checked how safe and comfortable it would be for a new festival for the audience.
"We organize this event on behalf of the head of the region Evgeny Kuyvashev and conduct the first. It is not easy, because, firstly, it requires increased security measures for spectators and participants, and secondly, the polygon "Staratel" itself has limitations on the number of visitors. Spectators pass here by invitation cards. Therefore, we "extended" the holiday due to two more city sites located in Nizhny Tagil, the entrance to which will be free for all comers. The festival will be an annual event and will develop. It is not ruled out that in the long term it will take place within a few days, which will make it more massive, "- said the first vice-governor of the Sverdlovsk region Alexei Orlov.
Activities on the "Staratel" will begin early in the morning with the Ural Cup on sniping. To participate are invited arrows from all over Russia, including winners of various prestigious competitions. The Hero of Russia Gevorg Isakhanyan will support the competitive spirit of the shooters. Also in the morning the Museum of the USSR will start its work, including, among others, competitions on "radio control" by tanks. The exposition is organized by the Vadim Zadorozhny Museum of Technology with the participation of the Museum of Armored Vehicles UVZ. One of the bright and spectacular events will be a dramatized historical reconstruction dedicated to the exploit of tankmen and tank builders during the Great Patriotic War. It will recreate the reconstruction of the sending of an echelon with T-34 tanks to the front and the heroic deed of the Hero of the Soviet Union, Captain Sergei Pavlov. Also on the "Staratel" will be demonstration performances of paratroopers on landing accuracy and "tank biathlon" with the participation of three T-72B3 machines. Crews of tanks will perform exercises according to a predetermined program, including fire missions and overcoming artificial and natural obstacles on the route. The program will end with the concert of the "Lube" group, the leading holiday will be Leonid Yakubovich.
