military ordnance
The framed text describes Russian artillery's significance since its introduction to Moscow in the 14th century. Medieval records state that Russians first used guns in 1382 to defend against the Mongols, leading to a 600th-anniversary celebration by the Soviet Army in 1982. The Tsar-Cannon in the Moscow Kremlin is a memorial of ancient Russian artillery. Cast in bronze in 1586 by Andrey Chokhov, it measures 5.34 m in length, has a caliber of 890 mm, is 15 cm thick, and weighs 40 tons. During the 16th and 17th centuries, the cannon defended the Kremlin and the passage across the Moskva River.
