O výstavě

The Heavy Weapons Exhibition brings together fighting vehicles, artillery and air-defence equipment. The T-34-85 combines armament, armour and its own engine. The M-30 howitzer and ZIS-3 field gun represent towed artillery, while the SON-9A provided measurements for anti-aircraft guns.

The KUB-M launcher introduces a different chapter: guided missiles and several devices working together within a single system. Comparing these objects reveals the distinction between a weapon and the equipment used to detect its target. The collection grew from objects assembled in Cieplice and later military transfers.
