Couple of months ago, I had a week of meetings to attend, and they got us a meeting room at Nellis AFB's Threat Training Facility, otherwise known as the "Petting Zoo". The reason for the nickname is all of the Comblock/foreign weapons, vehicles, and equipment that is there. Once, the building needed special access to enter, but now is open to the public for visits, and you can get totally hands on with nearly all of the exhibits. So, some pics from the Petting Zoo.
This guy is just inside the main lobby. I still find myself wondering why a flamethrower needs a bipod...
There are several of these display boards in the main lobby, not always labelled correctly, but what the hell.
ALL of the guns are rendered inert. Some by welding the bolts closed, some by welding the selector on Safe.
These racks are fun, because aside from being tethered down (with a reasonable length cord), they're meant to be picked up and examined in your hands, rather than on a display board.
As you can see, I took some down from the rack so I could get better pics. And play with them, of course.
MiG-29! One of two that I know of on base, the other being out at the 65th AGRS building.
MiG-23, right next to the MiG-29.
Whole bunches of nifty stuff out in the yard, and the only item you can't play on is a radar that has some radioactive material in it.
Chapparal. Not everything out in the yard is enemy gear.
Why, yes, that IS a Hind.
Can't wait til my son is old enough to take to see this stuff.
