Military technique of Chornobyl
In this section my photos of the various technics which is being in the Chornobyl's Zone are collected.

In the majority is the thrown technics used at liquidation of consequences of failure on ChNPP. As there is a quantity of technics left in the Zone during evacuation.

 

IMR (military engineering machine).

Military engineering machine - Army vehicle on the basis of the tanks T-55 (IMR-1) and T-72 (IMR-2), designed to build roads on rough terrain, woodland and urban obstructions, to excavate and backfilling the foundation pits. Equipped with bulldozer equipment and telescopic manipulator. During the liquidation of the Chernobyl accident was used to clean up the industrial site of the ChNPP station, burying villages Kopachi, Chistogalivka and settlement Yaniv, dumping "Red Forest" and the contaminated equipment at the temporary localization of radioactive waste (PVLRO) and point of radioactive waste disposal (PZRO). As a result, most of IMRs was heavily radioactively contaminated, and also was buried in PVLRO and PZRO, poured by concrete in the base of the OS (the "Shelter") of the Unit 4 of ChNPP, or moved to a burial of radioactive metal waste PZRO "Buriakivka”. Less contaminated equipment came to the settle ground of equipment "Rassokha" or was thrown in the Exclusion Zone.
