Parade Cars of Russia.

 Russia Post released a set of 4 stamps on Parade cars of Russia on 29th May 2021.

ZIS-110B - phaeton body type, produced in 1949-1957. ZIS-110B participated in military parades, worked as a taxi, and cameramen used them for filming. The ZIS-110B phaetons were painted in black, gray, gray-blue and beige.

ZIL-41041 AMG -  AMG-parade convertible from the Nizhny Novgorod company "Atlant Delta" created in 2010 for the Victory Parade in the amount of 4 copies. The car is a hybrid of a 2007 GMC Sierra 1500 pickup truck and a body from ZIL-41041. The body of the four-door ZIL sedan was converted into a two-door convertible. The car was used in parades from 2010 to 2018.

ZIL-117VE - body type passenger convertible. Top-class ZIL-117VE cars were produced from 1973 to 1979. They were intended mainly for participation in military parades and serving party and state leaders. As you know, the three parade copies were executed in gray-green color and differed from ordinary phaetons in the absence of a seat next to the driver, the presence of a microphone stand and a chrome handrail for "safety" of the Parade host. The remaining cars were produced in black and gray.

Aurus Senat Cabriolet  -  is created on the basis of the executive sedan "Senate" specifically for Victory Parades. The development of the entire family of cars was conducted since 2012 by the state scientific center "NAMI". Two cars took part in the Victory Day Parade in Moscow on May 9, 2019. Designed for the commander of the Parade and the Minister of Defense of the Russian Federation.
