Վիկտոր Տալալիխինի հուշարձան

Վիկտոր Տալալիխինի հուշարձան, War memorial monument in central Moscow, Russia.

The Victor Talalikhin Monument is a war memorial in central Moscow consisting of a bronze statue of the pilot standing on a granite base. The sculpture is located near Novokuznetskaya Metro Station and forms a notable landmark in this part of the city.

In 1941 during World War II, pilot Victor Talalikhin defended Moscow's skies by ramming a German bomber in a night operation. This act became a defining moment in the city's aerial defense against invasion.

This memorial serves as a gathering place where veterans and military personnel come together for commemorative ceremonies honoring Moscow's defense. It stands as a focal point for remembering the contributions of those who fought to protect the city.

The memorial is accessible daily at no charge and stands near Novokuznetskaya Metro Station on the Zamoskvoretskaya Line. From the station it is a short walk to the monument.

This memorial honors one of the first daring aerial tactics in modern aviation history, where a pilot used his aircraft as a weapon to stop an attacker. This form of sacrifice was pioneering and demonstrated the dedication of pilots protecting their city.
