Looks like Burt Rutan's Space Ship One crossed with a domestic appliance. George Lucas' props department probably have this picture on the office wall.

The ussr couldn't just copy a grumman duck, they had to double it and mate it to their copy of a b-29.

for all the thick nuts out there, the wings and engines have been removed from this airframe. 14m1p,VTOL amphibian. First flight was made in 1972. (Chief designer Robert L. Bartini)

It's EKRANOPLAIN. It's USSR product. It was like flying ship. You should see "Caspian See Monster".

What happened when the USSR finally decided to let function follow form.

thats (was) an aircraft on the side you can see the roots of a wing

It doesn't "fly" per say, it rides a high pressure zone trapped between the wing and the ground/water. check out the Caspian Sea Monster. Wing in Ground effect
