So it turns out there is a gigantic museum of various vehicles and machinery in Ekatirenburg (formerly Sverdlovsk). It houses, among other things, an incredible collection of Soviet cars, motorbikes and other things. For example - Soviet racecars. Turns out, not only there were numerous designs of those in USSR, but they were being designed and manufactured in Estonia. Does Estonia sound like a place that could be making top-end racecars nowadays? Yeah.
The other neat part is the collection of automobiles for Soviet government officials - various Chaika models and similair designs. Including one with a fully-armoured capsule inside the vehicle, and a model that was used to transport Gagarin to Kremlin after his flight (probably not the car though).
the Baltics in general produced lots of electronics during Soviet times
How’s that going now, eh?
