The Lun-class ekranoplan represents the apex of Soviet ground-effect vehicle development, crewed by fifteen personnel and spanning 44 meters. Its eight engines deliver an extraordinary 550 km/h across a 2,000-kilometer range, embodying ambitious engineering solutions to the unique physics of wing-in-ground-effect flight. The design demonstrates Soviet commitment to exploring unconventional transportation technologies.
