Russian army showcases heavy metal at Nashestvie rock festival

Russia’s biggest rock festival has become an unlikely stage for military hardware between musical acts.

Tens of thousands of rock fans are attending the popular Nashestvie music festival in Russia.

It features more than 150 bands and musicians, but it has also become the venue for a military show of force.
