The five-turreted T-35 was produced in small numbers in late 1930s and was one of the heaviest tanks to ever reach production. Unfortunately, it didn't prove effective during WW II.
Kubinka is one of the largest tank collections in the world. The museum not only displays virtually every tank ever produced in Soviet Union, but it also features a large collection of foreign tanks, particularly from the WW II period: from trophy German and Japanese tanks to American and British tanks.
Getting here does require quite a bit of effort, and the guards on premises are rather surly, but nonetheless you will find the visit very rewarding and interesting. I have a lot more photos from Kubinka, and will add them later.
