Towing a rocket ekranoplan “Lun“ to Derbent // Буксировка ракетного экраноплана «Лунь» в Дербент

The world’s only project 903 Lun rocket ekranoplane was delivered to the Patriot park in Derbent from Kaspiysk. Towing the plane by sea took about 14 hours, and it took another day to prepare the ekranoplan for transportation. It is planned that “Lun“ will become the central exhibit of the Derbent Park “Patriot“. Built at the Volga plant in Nizhny Novgorod, in 1986 the aircraft was redirected to Dagestan for testing. Upon their completion in 1991, the ekranoplan was transferred to the Caspian Flotilla. Th
