Used tanks

I saw a post about here about the service, too, decided to make his.
Will be 23 photos, please do not break.

What to do with our Army decommissioned appliances? Naturally, removing all. But it happens sometimes that same technique redeem some countries.

For example, our tanks T-62M1.

In this post I will tell them how to train / railroad cars loaded ...





To start taking the old, rusty tanks, pick up a whole bunch of other equipment of similar tanks (or have already figured out from the warehouse) and ready to paint. Incidentally, some of the charge storage machines. So they, too, are preparing for a long time (for example, there is the trunk of a fully packed lithologic.)
All Tanchiki disassemble, clean, wash, brush, paint inside and out. Then again collected, put the whole equipment.
Then send in the run-in, check how the gun. By the way, for this it is inserted blank cartridge in the barrel is poured 10 buckets of water and caulk a log. Bubuh rollback normal gun. It looks better than this shot.

Then, when the required party is ready, they are sent columns of the ramp.
Once driven at night. The road goes through the holiday village. A tanker has decided to cut a little corner on the turn, followed by a second, too repeated, and so on a chain. Dark night, did not see that in the way of "cutting" was a fence, and the fence of the beds of potatoes were ... in short crop of potatoes crushed ... We then re-sent to put (it was the end of July ...).

Here is ready to send tanchiki. Before sending them to remove all attachments (fascia boards, barrels of extra fuel, glove compartments all there outside, OPVT pipes, etc.), deploying the gun back.
All the stuff from the machines (including spare parts, and tools akkamulyator) goes in boxes along with the composition of the cargo train. One such box can weigh up to 700kilogramm, a box loaded 15 people ...



Tanchiki waiting for all his fellow on the ramp.



Before loading waiting locomotive with wagons carried out safety training.



Cars and drove him to the queue of machines

By the way, about the ramp. Usually tanks fetches the day before loading and leave with any of their duty overnight. And once this duty with a friend got drunk, he recalled how in the old days he had flown on the tanks of hot spots ... polygons, sat in the tank and began to wind circles on it. And dokruzhilsya ... Moved own car
Deciding that he scolded, fastened to the tank remains of his car and drove a tank in her garage, but the fuel is over)) conscripts that night raised the alarm and sent to push the car to its garage)
Mountain racer strogacha slapped and forced to be coded. By the way, to the extent there were a lot of ex-coded aklogolikov.



The first went.
Zampoteh helps the driver-mechanic put the car properly. The tank did not differ from the tractor, except that the tower with a gun, and that goes faster ... Although it is the current 80-weave and 90 are driven, 62-Key and 55-weave are simply unmanageable cows.



Tank arrives at the first platform. To him immediately run mourners, with bars, hammers ...



All tracks the right and left front and rear set spurs. Installed, the tank slightly leaned forward and all spur tightly eats into the wood floor of the car.



Vymeryat tank line to overhang the millimeter. All exactly as in a drugstore.



Between the rollers (wheels of the tank) are put protivootkaty



zakremplyayutsya and staples.



On the gun throws the wire in several layers, and tied it to the brackets on the wagon



Then conscripts (required them) spin scrap wire, making the tension.



Paint marked the position of the car on the train.



Hung a sign marking the center of gravity (+) and some more notation.



The "cabin" spun off switch weight wire. All equipment inside the covers close and seal.



Meanwhile, with the remnants of fuel tank is drained and re-pour exactly 10 liters.

There are three tanks inside the tank - front and right of the driver two. To drain the fuel they need to crawl under the tank, unscrew the hatch there. For hatches have a secret hole into which is screwed fitting, which raises check ball itoplivo starts to pour. Very lucky when the ball there.

On the author once Võlli not menbshe 20 liters of diesel fuel when he unscrewed the hatch and lock the ball in the tank was not there, had to touch fitting look for a hole ... I was all wet and smelled of diesel fuel per week))



Close and seal all hatches.



And so every Tanchiki separately. Then it all goes by unknown routes to the port.



The port tanchiki and friend sends equipment to unload cars.



Then again cling crane Tanchiki



and up to a great height ...
Tank in a stripped condition weighs about 35 tons.



And falls to the bottom parahod. Fill the boat completely and sent to the technology necessary for the country.

By the way, while I served, such as the coordination of loading / unloading techniques not seen anywhere else in the army. Everyone is engaged only in the business: one harassed, others poured, the third oplombirovyvayut etc.
1 car takes about 15 minutes for all.

When we priehzhali Japanese were shocked by how the 8 hours we were loaded, secured, cleaned of debris and sent 35 trucks with boxes with the butt. According to them they have a pass for 2-3 days.

And the proceeds from the sale of decommissioned equipment machine to come to us in terms of new-weave 80 and 90. Come often, he saw.
So that our army is not in decline. Do not look at the individual parts, in which everything is bad.

Everything))
