Genre: History Publisher: Midland Publishing ISBN: 978-1857801460 Format: PDF Quality: Scanned pages Pages count: 130 Description: For decades the Soviet Union and now Russia have held leading positions in the development of a special class of vehicles which are neither aircraft nor ships . . . or both at once. Known as wing-in-ground effect (WIGE) craft or by their Russian name of Ekranoplan, these vehicles combined the best of both worlds, operating on the borderline between the sky and the sea, offering the speed of an aircraft coupled with better operating economics and the ability to operate pretty much anywhere on the world's waterways.
