Some time back I was allowed to play for a while with some local EOD guys at a demil facility in a former Warsaw Pact country. Thought you might enjoy some of the photos.
@ Chris, SA-3 (Goa) missiles. The wings of the start/booster rocket are clipped on after removal from the container, The triangular wings cannot be removed, therefore the bulb in the container.
@ US -subs; what a waste to destroy those SA-8(b) Gecko's:tinysmile_cry_t4:, they could have been turned into very interesting cutaway models . An absolute bloody waste!!
There were other items that i would have liked much more. Some submunitions from some of the big missile systems which I've never had the chance to see, let alone play with. Unfortunately the task and situation would not allow me or them to clean anything to keep for history. Maybe next time.
Hi,
I'm new to the site. What's an Umi and a Gumi?
