I-USSR yangaphambili yayivundile kumaphrojekthi wobunjiniyela be-megalomaniac. Lena Lun-class Ekranoplan kuyisibonelo esihle sobuhlakani, ubuhlakani namandla onjiniyela avela ezweni elaliyiSoviet Union. Ubufakazi bangempela balokho isintu esikwazi ukukwenza lapho imingcele yesabelomali ingabekwa (umthethosivivinywa weza kamuva…).
Eyakhelwe ngo-1987 emikhumbi yemikhumbi yaseRussian Navy oLwandle lweCaspian, i-Lun-class Ekranoplan yayisebenza kuze kube ngu-1990. Ngemva kwalokho, ubunzima bezezimali be-"Eastern Giant" bunqume ukuphela kohlelo.
Rostislav Evgenievich Alexeyev - igama unjiniyela obhekene nale "silo mechanical". Indoda okwathi emashumini ambalwa eminyaka yazinikela ekuthuthukiseni lo mqondo "wezindiza zemikhumbi", owazalwa ngawo-60s.
Umqondo "ohluke kakhulu" kangangokuthi i-World Maritime Organization (WMO) ibe nobunzima obukhulu ekuwuhlukaniseni. Akuyona i-hovercraft, akuyona indiza entantayo noma i-hydrofoil… ngokusho kwe-OMM, umkhumbi ngempela.
Futhi uma ukubukeka kuhlaba umxhwele kuthiwani ngeshidi lobuchwepheshe? Izinjini eziyisishiyagalombili ze-Kuznetsov NK-87, u-2000 km wokuzimela, amathani angu-116 omthwalo okhokhelwayo kanye… 550km/h wejubane eliphezulu! Ingahamba ngomkhumbi ifike ku-4.0 m ngaphezu komhlaba.
Sekukonke, izisebenzi ze-Lun-class Ekranoplan zazihlanganisa abantu abangu-15. Phakathi kokuzulazula nokusebenzisa lesi "silo", umkhuzi we-Lun-class Ekranoplan wayesenemicibisholo ejikijelwayo eyisithupha ekwazi ukucwilisa umkhumbi.
Kodwa ngaphambi kwale modeli, kwakukhona emangalisa nakakhulu. Okukhudlwana, okunamandla kakhulu, okusabekayo kakhulu. Yayibizwa nge-KM Ekranoplan futhi yafinyelela esiphethweni esibuhlungu. Ngokwemibiko esemthethweni, i-KM yangena ngaphansi kokuqeqeshwa, ngenxa yephutha lomkhuzi. Impela...
Ngeshwa, ngeke siphinde sibone noma yiziphi zalezi zilo zihamba ngomkhumbi. I-KM Ekranoplan ihlakaziwe. I-Lun-class Ekranoplan imiswe endaweni yemikhumbi yemikhumbi yaseRussia oLwandle lweCaspian. Ngokunokwenzeka, kuze kube phakade.
