What happened to the Ekranoplan? - The Caspian Sea Monster

What happened to the Ekranoplan, the huge ground effect vehicle the Soviets developed in the cold from the 1960’s to the 1980’s. This was a part plane, part boat that could fly just above the above the sea surface and carry huge loads of personnel or weapons at high speed. We look at its development, its inventor and its ultimate demise. Pateron : Sponsors : Luke, Muhammad Tauha Ali, Pascal Hausammann, Florian Hesse.
