It is another ekranoplan form. Named "Orlenok" I believe. They built
several including "Lun", "Spasatelx", and Orlenok. Three were actually put
into service but they weren't of the "Lun" class. Google ekranoplan -
there are quite a few sites with some good info on the Soviet's Wing In
Ground Effect planes....Some tech data also. There are a couple of good
ones in Russian, if you can read that....
