Kharkov Map – In Real Life

Kharkov Map – In Real Life

this is one of the more interesting posts, featured on the World of Tanks RU portal – a fan video by the Russian player “Compmaniacâ€, who currently actually lives in Kharkov. Since the map “Kharkov†is coming to World of Tanks in patch 9.1, he made a video, comparing the ingame map locations to the real city of Kharkov, its landmarks and streets.

The video is obviously in Russian, but the pictures are interesting as well, it includes the massive building of Gosprom (also known as the Palace of Industry), the big round “Liberty Squareâ€, the Kharkov University complex and the Chichibabin street.

The map is apparently based on the German air recon photo from 16.12.1941. The video actually contains a lot of interesting info about Kharkov, too bad it’s not officially translated in English.
