> Our organization has state licenses for search lifting,
restoration and sale not only military (aviation, armoured equipment and so
on), but also civil equipment (automobiles, tractors, prime movers,
motorcycles and so on), the equipment of Wold War I, Wold War II, pre-war
periods, and material evidences of all historical periods on the territory
of Republic of Belarus.
> The result of our activity is a creation of a small collection of
historical equipment:
> Soviet tank BT-7 , produced in 1935, submerged on 11 metros of depth,
but now it has been restored for working state in original complete set;
> German cannon Pak 36 (r) . Having been submerged on 4 metres of depth.
It s completely restored;
> German mortar 211 mm Gr18 on a transport carriage found in the wood has
been completely restored now;
> German halfcaterpillar mover DB-1043 . It has been lifted from the
marsh and it is in restoration;
> Soviet mover Stalinets , produced in 1939. Was listed from the march
and is in restoration now;
> Two German tanks Pz.Kpfw.38(t) , exploded but now they are in a
complete set for restoration to a working state. All works on their
restoration are stopped;
> Parts of some airplanes Yakovlev-1 , Iunkers-88 ,
Messerschmitt Bf 110 have been lifted.
> Our state due to geopolitical situation was a member of all
global conflicts. The war with Sweden, Napoleon s compaign to Russia (the
rest of troops were defeated in Belarus), Wold War I, Wold War II lest
evidences of all historical events on our land.
> In organization of searching work we use archive facts. According
to official returns on the territory of Republic of Belarus, the casualties
of military tanks were numbered in 216 ones, but as for as the rest of
military equipment about 11000 ones. In consequence mistaken opinion of
Vermaht guidance, during the operation Bagration in 1944, it turned out to
distract the attention and when germane troops would return to the lest
territory, the command was given not to destroy all the equipment , but to
take measures to its cover. The rapidity of this operation didn t give a
chance of taking out material resources equipment to new positions.
> The members and eye-witnesses of battles help in our searching
work. Such work gives bigger result than work with archives, but is
complicated by the fact that some of them died, some are old and live in
different parts of the world.
> Our specialists have a big experience of searching and lifting
not only the unbroken equipment but the exploded, parts of which were
dispersed in the radius of some metres and were in the marsh on the depth of
more than 10 metres. During 2 years our specialists carried out more than 30
liftings of different complication not only in Belarus but in Russia as
well. We have a big experience and technical opportunities of equipment and
aviation restoration to a working state.
> We are looking for partners on mutual help conditions for
realization of following programmers:
> 1. Museums and private collections interested in buying equipment and
material evidences (it s possible to order searches of certain kinds of
equipment, arms, attributes and so on).
> 2. Those who wish to take part in the lifting of equipment, excavations of
constructions, fortifications and depots.
> 3. Searching groups for joint work and excavations and information that
