Talking to Navy Recognition, the Chief Engineer explained that the project which was launched two years ago is completly designed by RADAR MMS company and it did not follow any specific requirements from the Russian government or military.

The A-080-752 has been designed as a transport Ekranoplan for both civilian and military applications. However some weapons may be fitted for military customers.

It is powered by two Progress D-436 three-shaft high by-pass turbofan engine developed by Ivchenko-Progress. These engines are already in use on Beriev BE-200 as well as other platforms.

It is estimated that it would take RADAR MMS only five years to complete the project and conduct a first flight if a customer was to order this new Ekranoplan.
