Laszlo Bastyovanszky thought this information would be of interest - The unbelievably massive Lun class ekranoplan -plane/boat/ship! In 1987, the Soviets produced the first ground battle missile carrier named ‘Lun’. Lun weighed 350 tons and carried six Moskit cruise missiles which were classified under the category of SS-N-22 Sunburn by NATO. Lun, Russian for hen harrier, could sink a vessel of any type and size by hitting it with just four of the Moskit cruise missiles. Lun was also known as Project 903. Several other ‘ships’ were also produced in the Lun series, including a battle aircraft, whose planned completion stalled when the Cold War ended and was consequently changed into a rescue aircraft. See link below for the full history. |
