Refuge defense plant

"Despite the successes of the socialist countries in the struggle for peace and the efforts of all progressive mankind, opening up the real possibility of excluding world war from the life of society, the threat of its occurrence remains in the program of the CPSU says that the imperialist camp prepares the worst crime against humanity -. A world thermonuclear a war that may cause unprecedented destruction, destroy entire peoples. "

Considering the threat of imperialist armies it is likely across the country built numerous shelters of various types and different sizes. All of them are similar to each other, but sometimes come across the protective structures built not on a standard project. To see such a non-standard shelter I managed one defense plant in Moscow.

I will assume that in Moscow there are more than in any city of Russia. Therefore, to find them in the capital is quite simple. But in residential areas they are not in perfect condition. Therefore seek refuge well preserved best at the plants near research institutions and other public facilities built during the Soviet Union.

The total number of existing civil defense facilities in Moscow - a state secret. And I think it's a secret for security forces since the collapse of the Soviet Union, many shelters were demolished or flooded. And about their condition is known probably only to those who are keen insight into these structures.

Of course, we should not forget that in the event of war, they were not much help. Modern bombs and missiles rather quickly turn the shelter into mass graves.

But in addition to the war, there are other dangers - man-made. Of them just may even save the oldest defenses, if they zhizneobespechivaniya operating system.

So, in theory, everyone should know where to run in case of danger.

I now wonder how many people today know where to hide, if such a large-scale emission of chlorine occurs or ammonia in the city. I think most of those who do not work in factories or in research institutes, in addition to the subway and other protective structures do not know. But earlier, in schools and workplaces have explained how to act and where to go in case of extremely situation in the city. When I was but a standard dressing mask and recommendations zazhmurivatsya and hide in the folds of the terrain in a nuclear explosion, I did not explain anything. Hopefully, now OBZH provide more information.

Using the search on the Internet, I found a list of shelters in Moscow. But too early to celebrate, living close to a number of protective structures, which are in the list. I am on a personal experience that in case of emergency, I, the maximum that can - to park the car or the wash.

Use protective structures by double purpose began in the 60s of the last century. But then there were the standards under which a short time the shelter is in full combat readiness. Now I doubt that someone has time to alter the car wash in the short term in the functional structure of civil defense.

So, as has been joking to post about the shelter in case the apocalypse will survive only bloggers.

But back to the shelter, that in the photographs. This protective structure was built before the war, that adds to the uniqueness. It is now out of service.

The main feature of this asylum, was the presence of a non-standard way down. Both inputs are made in view of "glass" with a spiral staircase.

In addition to the ladder there is the "fastest" way to get inside the wooden pole.

Despite the fact that the shelter is decommissioned, it is connected to electricity. However, the light we could not turn on.

In addition to the usual for this kind of facilities, equipment, nothing inside was not.

Boxes for storage of personal protective equipment.

But because of the emptiness inside spread very unusual sound. Being on the other side, I could hear the footsteps of his comrades, was not heard while the voice sounds. Because of this constantly felt that someone down or creeps up on you.
