The pavilion of the Ministry of Defence "Army to Children. City of Professions. The Future of the Country" offers a lot of interesting activities for young and adult guests. You can perform a "parachute jump", make a "dead loop" on a fighter jet, render first aid and even perform surgery.

The pavilion consists of several halls, each having plenty of things to see and do. The guests are greeted by the interactive UAV zone. Here you can first learn how to fly drones on a training complex, and then on a specially equipped platform.

For kids who love robots, there is a whole hall of robotics. Here, under the guidance of experts from the Avangard Center, you can try yourself as an engineer and make your first project.

For fans of computer games there is a zone of esports and simulators. You can jump with a parachute in a special simulator - the sensations are very realistic: the attraction will easily impress even adults. The virtual reality simulator is also suitable for younger guests, while the bravest can choose the fighter jet flight mode and even do a real "dead loop" - so don't forget to take everything out of your pockets.

The medical zone turned out to be really exciting. Here you can learn to render first aid on special mannequins: bandaging and wound treatment, cardiopulmonary resuscitation and indirect heart massage, removal of airway obstruction.

In addition, the pavilion offers kids not only entertainment, but also interesting opportunities for the future. They will be able to learn about the main areas of work of the Russian military department and try themselves in different military specialties. Some may even decide to tie their lives to the army.
