Ekranoplan

[RED PRED]

Has anyone heard of this beast, it is featured on James Mays prog at 9pm on BBC 2 tonight, it is the Ekranoplan, a Russian troop carrier I believe which was designed to fly at almost zero altitude at high subsonic speeds under the radar coverage during the cold war, one slight slip and its in the sea !
