Designed by Rostislav Alekseyev in the 1970s, it was intended for rapid troop deployment and armed attacks, as well as transporting P-270 Moskit anti-ship missiles along the coast of the Caspian Sea. The craft remained in service from the late 1980s to the late 1990s. Its uniqueness lies in combining features of both an aircraft and a ship – it was neither a conventional airplane nor a ship. It was classified as a GEV (ground effect vehicle) by the International Maritime Organization.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    The Takom model captures the unusual construction and silhouette of the ekranoplan, retaining characteristic features such as massive wings, large engines, and a streamlined fuselage. Thanks to its uniqueness, the Lun ekranoplan is an original and rarely-seen subject in model collections devoted to military aviation and the naval weaponry of the USSR.\n  \u003c\/p\u003e\n  \n  \u003ch3\u003eWhy choose the Takom 3002 Lun-Class Ekranoplan 1\/144 model?\u003c\/h3\u003e\n  \u003cul\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eThe model is faithfully reproduced with all the construction details characteristic of Soviet engineering thought\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eIdeal for expanding collections of aviation models and jet technology from the Cold War era\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eThe refinement and quality of the kit ensures an attractive final result even for demanding modelers\u003c\/li\u003e\n    \u003cli\u003eThe 1\/144 scale allows you to build a model of optimal size that fits easily into any display\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003c\/ul\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003e\n    \u003cstrong\u003eWe recommend this product to intermediate modelers as well as all enthusiasts of extraordinary military designs.
