Excuse my language but I'm speechless ...

Obviously I've been living under a rock , never knew anything like this existed.
A Russian Military hovercraft turns up on a tourist beach . One of them captured about 5 secs of video of which I couldn't capture but heres a screen shot of
the beast ...

Yeah, those Pomornik class landing hovercrafts are quite impressive machines.

Military hovercraft shocks sunbathers in Russia

What an interruption of a lazy day at the beach ;-)

 

[TheGrunt]

What an exiting moment on a boring day at the beach ;-)

Corrected

I knew about these, but never realized the actual size, wow. Scary to think China has these also, talk about shock and awe seeing one of these coming at you in person..

 

[flaviossa]

Is this the video?

Impressive!!!

There goes Ivan, again; always having to be the one to make a big, splashy entrance...

Same thought.

(To) russia (v.) - to overachieve, to exaggerate

 

[SkippyBing]

Or as I was taught in recognition classes, the Porno-Mick, because it's got three b*** j*** at the back.

Kids, ask your parents...

having seen these in Greece and seeing them do Amphib assault practice i can tell you they make you clear off in a real hurry, remember being on a tourist boat (drinking cruise) with some friends and one went past, the noise is immense but yeah you certainly clear off.... and they do look like some sort of future vehicle in an odd kind of way...
