Post-retirement
After residing at the Tushino factory where it was constructed, it was incorrectly announced in 2006 that Shuttle 2.01 would be put on display in the Sinsheim Auto & Technik Museum, Germany. However, the German Museum had actually bought OK-GLI, the jet-powered Buran atmospheric test vehicle, which will be on display in its own new hangar from September 2008.
Since 2004 the shuttle 2.01 had been left under open sky on a car park in Moscow, near Khimki Reservoir.
On 22 June 2011 during the day the shuttle was put on a barge to be moved to the MAKS 2011 international air show, which will take place from 16 to 21 August in the Zhukovsky town (Moscow region). In the night of 22–23 June it was seen on the Moskva River.
