Plan views of the A-90 Orlyonik Ecranoplan.

I have to hand it to the Soviets, they came up with some novel aircraft designs.

Frequently by approaching all design issues with "Make it bigger" and "Add more engines"

Some more photos. I read that they are restoring a LUN for a museum. Ecranoplan are basically ground effect vehicles, a cross between a plane and a hovercraft.
