Russian Victory Day Parade

Post by Apachex »

I saw a snippet on this years parade over at the BBC news website:

Nothing shocking in the videos, looks like HIPs, SA-15s, 2S19s and wheel stock. Is there a reason why its all painted Soviet Green again? Cost savings, or a throwback to the WWII paintscheme?
