Looking like a flying saucer which has just captured a Mil Mi2 Fuselage, the ALA-40 was a 'proof of concept' design by Aviastar at Ulyanovsk, Russia. The program began in 1985, proceeding under chief designer Yuri Ishkov, and a prototype was ready in 1992.
The craft was a rigid-structure airship with heat control available. The 40 metre diameter ALA-40 was designed for 5-6 tonne cargoes, paving the way for the 200 m. diameter ALA-500, with 500-600 tonne capacity.
Enlarge image (will open in a new window)The airships were intended to provide large, ecologically clean bulk carriers requiring virtually no airport or ground support. Timber and oil support equipment was among the proposed cargoes, with variants to include a flying tourist hotel, an emergency evacuation vehicle (for sea disasters, earthquake relief etc.), a firefighting aircraft, and a mobile hospital.
Its composite structure and skin, coupled with large size, was expected to provide high stability.

Straight out of The X Files, this lighter-than-air saucer was developed by the Russians for heavy lift work. And scaring the peasants, no doubt.
First Flight: 1993?

De Flying Boxcar is een Fairchild AC-119, ook veel gebruikt als Gunship in de Vietnam oorlog:

Dat is de Spruce Goose van Howard Hughes
Nog steeds het grootste vliegtuig ooit gemaakt, heeft echter nooit een echte vlucht op hoogte gemaakt.
