Usual caveats apply here, its not HTTPS and its a Russian website. I would strongly suggest not visiting or downloading anything unless you are certain of your Anti Malware.

 

I have had a scan through the photos. They would appear to be late 70's to early 80's. there are mix of Soviet and NATO surface ships, aircraft and some missiles in there.

 

They may have been the potential enemy then but it is interesting to see the photos give a human face. Change the uniforms and vessels and its not entirely unlike my photo albums from the time in the mob (the correct side of the Iron Curtain I should point out, the forces of light and good 😀).
