EKRANOPLANE - TOP SECRET TEHNOLOGY FROM RUSSIA (USSR) Ekranoplane Top Secret Techology from Russia (USSR)
Some manned and unmanned prototypes were built, ranging up to eight tons in displacement. This led to the development of the "Caspian Sea Monster", a 550-ton military ekranoplan. Although it was designed to travel a maximum of 3 m (9.8 ft) above the sea, it was found to be most efficient at 20 m (66 ft), reaching a top speed of 300 kn (350 mph; 560 km/h) (400 kn (460 mph; 740 km/h) in research flight).

  • Wtf is wrong with the drivers head

  • This is the development of the '70s, now in the Russian Federation is the technology is much steeper and more powerful.

  • I heard the caspian sea monster was capable of heights of 600ft so wave heights are not really to worry. Boeing building a test plane for use in haulage

  • OK so it looks terrifying hauling ass across the flat Caspian Sea, how would this thing have ever stood a chance of crossing the north sea in a potential invasion of western Europe? There tend to be kind of a lot of rather large waves out there...

  • top secret and its on youtube XD... search for wings of russia episode and U will have 50+ min documentary

  • ok, im not going to sail in the caspian sea now :)
