On the eve of the Day of Memory and Sorrow, June 21, the Krasnoyarsk regional branch of the United Russia party, together with the KGAU House of Officers and the All -Russian Public Movement, “Victory Volunteers” will hold the “Fiery Pictures of War”.

In the year of the 80th anniversary of the Great Victory, party activists and residents of Krasnoyarsk will create from suppositories the exposition of the Bi-4 hydraulic plan, which was made in Krasnoyarsk during the war and successfully fought with the enemy at the front.

A floating aircraft was created in the workshops of the secret “Plant No. 477” under the leadership of the aircraft engineer Georgy Beriev. In the work on the hydraulic plane, the presence of a hydroaviation base, the neighborhood with large machine -building plants and fast Yenisei, which allowed to experience new equipment, helped. As a result, the Bi-4 hydroplane appeared, which accelerated to 350 km per hour, had a supply of 1000 km, wore heavy aircraft bombs or reactive missiles.

Materials on the topic

From Krasnoyarsk, “Beshki” went to the front by trains, disassembled. Military pilots tested them in combat conditions, and sent their wishes for refinement. Krasnoyarsk planes fought over the Black and Baltic Seas, conducted reconnaissance, tracked sea mines, drove German submarines, bombed the enemy and promptly saved bumped colleagues from the water. In total, the “Plant No. 477” launched about 40 Be-4 aircraft. Almost all of them went to the front, four pieces remained in the region and drove German submarines in Taimyr. After the war, the hydraulic plane went into history. But he became the progenitor of the Bi-200 amphibian aircraft, which extinguishes forest fires.

Deputy of the regional parliament, regional coordinator of the party project “Historical Memory” Evgeny Petrenko He notes that this year the fifth action “Fiery Pictures of War” will take place this year:

“In Krasnoyarsk, a commemorative action on the day of memory and sorrow was first held in 2021. On June 22, volunteers created the “Union of the Front and Logger” installation of 5,000 candles on the Victory Memorial Square in Krasnoyarsk. In 2022, volunteers laid out the sculptural composition “Ship and Obelisk to Dixon's Defenders” from suppositories. The seaport of Dixon on the Peninsula Taimyr of the Krasnoyarsk Territory entered the history of the Great Patriotic War as the northernmost point of the country in which military operations took place. In 2023, in Krasnoyarsk, the regional organizing committee of the action was decided to create a fiery picture dedicated to the Sergo Ordzhonikidze steam locomotive. This is the first steam locomotive to leave the territory of the Siberian heavy engineering plant. In 2024, near the stele, the city of labor valor in Krasnoyarsk, volunteers created the exposition of the K-61 anti-aircraft installation, which the Krasmash plant made the Krasmash plant. In memory of the labor exploits of the Krasnoyarsk residents, 5 thousand candles were simultaneously lit here. This year I invite all fellow countrymen to also join the commemorative action and honor the memory of all the fallen in the fields of the Great Patriotic War. Eternal memory to the heroes! ”
