Today I will be building the Takom 1/144 Lun class Ekranoplan
The Lun-class ekranoplan was developed on the basis of the experimental KM ekranoplan, which was nicknamed the "Caspian Sea Monster".
The Lun was powered with eight Kuznetsov NK-87 turbofans, mounted on forward canards. It had a maximum cruising speed of 550 kilometres per hour (340 mph).
Equipped with 6 P-270 Moskit (Mosquito) guided missile. The missile launchers were mounted in pairs on the dorsal surface of its fuselage with advanced tracking systems mounted in its nose and tail.
The only model of this class ever built to completion, the MD-160, entered service with the Soviet Navy Caspian Flotilla in 1987. It was retired in the late 1990s and sat unused at a Caspian Sea naval base in Kaspiysk until 2020
