    Moscow is looking pretty auster in 1929 compared to any of the major European capitals. I guess that is what happens when you direct all the nations resources to conflict internally and abroad. Amazing footage, thanks Sergei 🇬🇧

      They appear to be the same two British Mark V tanks that were in the 1928 May Day parade video. The first one appears to be a Male and the second one a Female. Without seeing both sides it is impossible to tell if they if they are Hermaphrodites, or Composite, variants that have half Male and half Female armament. Yes, this is really what the British called the difference versions of their tanks.

    It is always fascinating to watch an old Military Parade. Especially when it is USSR. They are still using British designed WW1 tanks. By the time of this parade absolutely obsolete. Some armed with Russian Maxim guns but some still armed with French Hotchkiss machine guns. It is difficult to explain why. Most peasants would not notice. Just glad to have a day away from work. They will notice in 1941.

      At this time the USSR was in the process of rapidly trying to industrialize and still recovering from the Civil War (which those British tanks were captured from). They were building the factories to build the tanks. By '41 they had tens of thousands of modern tanks, aircraft , and machine guns.

    Cheeseburger, we know that you have always considered yourself to be russian from in the Ukraine. You are for the most proud of your heritage.
    But, Stalin started the purges after this and millions to the gulogs for free labor. Not to mention the genocide of Ukrainians in 1932.

      No. I considered myself a russian-speaking Soviet of the Ukrainian descent. There was no pride - I didn't file any paperwork to be born in the USSR. It just happened that way. And of course we knew nothing of GULAG camps or Holodomor.
