Kubinka set the course Panther

While all constantly watching the news from Le Bourget, in the suburbs, too, there are interesting things. Yesterday, after a significant break, again entered the system "live" German tank Panzerkampfwagen V Panther (speaking Russian language - T5 "Panther"). The peculiarity of this point is that it is the world's only "running" Panther, which is entirely in their native parts. Almost a year enthusiasts with ZIL factory maintenance is a gasoline engine Maybach HL 230 P45 (Displacement 23L., Maximum power of 700 hp.. At 3000 rev / min).
So the other day, this car made a terrible break-trip to the museum of armored vehicles in Kubinka.
