Mark M Posted August 15, 2017 Share Posted August 15, 2017 The A-90 Orlyonok (Russian: Орлёнок, English: "Eaglet") is a Soviet ekranoplan (a ground effect vehicle) that was designed by Rostislav Evgenievich Alexeyev of the Central Hydrofoil Design Bureau. The A-90 uses ground effect to fly a few meters above the surface. The Russians classify it as Ekranoplan Class B - it can achieve an altitude of 3,000 m (9,800 ft), placing between Class A - which is limited to ground effect, and Class C, which exploits the ground effect only during take-offs and landings. I Give you Revells 1/144 A-90 Built for a GB on MMM hope you like her Hardcore, Alain Gadbois, johncrow and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
