The gotcha is for little girls xD

“Real man use real ammunitions”, the Ukrainian instructor says in the military barracks. However, men who are in his charge are not soldiers, are tourists. This is because you can pay to the Ukrainian army for a little walk, for firing with a grenade launcher or shoot bullets with a goat horn. Ukraine passes through financial problems and this tourist attraction, unthinkable in Europe, is good for its economy.

Ukraine is a vast and beautiful country. A little larger than france, with a population of just over 50 million. But also is a poor country. The average monthly salary is about 30 dolars. Half of the population are farmers. And almost all the money that enters to the country goes straight to the russians to cover the gas bill. The government practically does not have where to drop dead.

So the Defense Ministry gave instructions to the army to seek a way to earn some money. An order that the military complied very well.

And it worked. Something that would be out of place for any European army or the world, it is not in Ukraine: shoot bazookas, empty Kalashnikovs and submachines at any target that you want, just make sure they are not living things xD; driving around in tanks and armored vehicles . Doesn’t that sound more interesting than the kayak?

“The world-famous assault rifle AK-47 (goat horn) is available for a shooting test”.

“In addition to the previous training in the simulator, special qualities are needed to drive a tank T-80. Skills like enjoying real big toys and loud explosions are the only prerequisites”.
