INTRODUCTION

Heavy vehicles are mostly found in the museums with armed vehicles mostly tanks. Museums, new media, offer the space, context and the right environment to begin a unique journey anywhere which has been imaginable. During the 20th century after the creation of drawings required for future combat vehicle was manufactured its model on which the Main Armor Management Ministry of Defence of the USSR defended tehproekt tank. The oldest in this collection is a model of a heavy tank T-35, established in the early 1930s. She was brought to the Urals Kharkov designers fall 1941, along with valuable drawing archive, more than half a century carefully stored in the KB, and then was transferred to the museum. Information about the availability of such machines in other museums around the world and on the pedestal as a monument there. By the method of ranking sites in science and technology are unique to a group of objects, valued not less than 45 points. Flame Tank, located in the museum collection, scored 89 points. OT-34 tanks during World War II were completed only a few battalions to 11 machines each, and they produced plants in small quantities.

The paper discusses the proposal regarding the financial cost and implications of heavy vehicles in the museum environment. It analyzes the literature written on armoured tanks, the management in the museum and relates different aspects to reach to a conclusion.

Statement of Purpose

The purpose of this research is to analyze the financial cost implications in terms of project management of maintaining/operating large vehicles in a museum environment.

The word museum was introduced in Alexandria by Ptolemy Philadelphus in the third century BC to designate the first scientific research institute of antiquity. The word “museum” was named in honor of the Muses, the deities representing the Arts and Sciences. Since then called the Museum, the institutions devoted to preserving objects of historical, cultural and educational for the study of science, technology and art.

Through its collections, imaginary dialogues are established between the observer and the observed material, establishing a rich tapestry of reasoning and imagination. There is reasoning because the observer cannot remove questions and answers, which he will try to respond beyond a date reference cold, a place or a name and imaginations because of the spiritual power that arises necessarily against all evidence of the past (Pantin 2007, 78-80).

By action of both reasoning and imagination, the seed of knowledge will penetrate germinating in the fertile field of knowledge. Throughout the years and especially since ...
