On July 14, 1941, the BM-13 Katyusha rocket launched a surprise attack on the German forces entrenched at the Orsha railway station in Belarus, which was the first actual combat of the Katyusha rocket launcher and a rocket launcher in the modern sense.
With such a historical position, how can the combination of weapons × commemorative cups be missing "Katyusha"? First look at the "Katyusha" rocket launcher on display in Rudnia, Smolensk Oblast, using the chassis of a ZIS-6 truck.
The following "Katyusha" monument is also in the Smolensk region, but is located in the village of Znamenka, and is a BM-13HM type, with a chassis of ZIL-157 trucks. The armor plates in the wheelhouse were all lowered and tightly covered.
This last one is completely a model of a flower shelf.
Look at the base of the terrazzo, so painstakingly built a monument, which shows the nostalgia for "Katyusha", but how can you not get a real guy? Ten tires.
