What a interesting design. Did this aircraft/boat ever get off the ground/water?

What, you never heard of the Ekranoplan? And yea, those tubes at the top of that one ekranoplan shoot missiles. Pretty awesome.  Three-part documentary. |

The plan I thought was to have one of the ekranoplans put on show with the Tango submarine in Moscow.
That's the things they do things half assed, they get the money but hald gets nicked.
