Found a Russian blog with many pics of a massive "wing in ground" effect seaplane.

Here's Google's translated text...

"In 1987, the water came down "Lun" the first ship of a series of missile-carrying combat WIG weighing 400 tons was the Chief Designer Vladimir Kirillov. Корабль был вооружен тремя парами крылатых ракет 3М80 или 80М "Москит" (НАТОвское обозначение SS-N-22 Sunburn). The ship was armed with three pairs of cruise missile 3M80 or 80M "Mosquito" (the NATO designation SS-N-22 Sunburn). Второй "Лунь" тоже закладывался как ракетоносец, но начавшаяся конверсия внесла свои коррективы, и его планировали достроить как спасательный. The second "Lun" also found a rocket, but the conversion has begun its own changes, and it planned to complete the construction as a rescue. "







Many, many more pics at the Source.
