SI: Not all, but maybe some. Well, of course the parade in Moscow will be the pinnacle.
It will start at 10 o’clock on the 9th of May, because in Russia we celebrate it on May 9.
The number of troops… more than 15,000 troops. There will be a modern parade and
a sort of a retrospective parade.
RT: So there’ll be a historical side to it as well?
SI: I mean some soldiers will wear the uniforms which were part of the Soviet army 70 years ago.
There will be special insignia. I think in Britain you call it ‘trooping the colors.’ It will be something
like that. And of course there will be old tanks, the famous T-34, some other trucks, military trucks
which were used 70 years ago. So that will be the historical part of the parade.
RT: But also modern technology as well …
SI: Yes. As for the modern technology, there will be on display for the first time state-of-the-art, brand
new weapons systems like, for example, the intercontinental ballistic missile called Yars. There will be
armoured personnel carriers, high-precision artillery systems – they will be shown for the first time.
There will also be the famous Sukhoi Su-30 and Sukhoi Su-35. They are also state-of-the-art, very modern.
