State-of-the-art military and cutting-edge drones – take a peek at the advanced military machines to be showcased at the V-day parade in Moscow. RT’s Igor Zhdanov joined the rehearsal and rode one of the massive machines.

As Russia gears up to commemorate Victory Day, RT crew managed to get a close-up look at the rehearsal for the iconic military parade. Among the more sophisticated weapon systems to be showcased on Red Square for the first time is a 200kg Korsar strike drone, which is able to carry bombs and missiles.

The BMPT Terminator tank-support vehicle and Patrul armored land mine-resistant vehicle are among the newbies at the parade commemorating victory over Nazi Germany in World War II.

EDITORIAL NOTE: The previous version of the article stated that the RT crew filmed the final rehearsal of the V-Day parade on Sunday. The video used in the article is, however, from another rehearsal earlier this week.
