Kings of the Two Elements: how Russia created unique amphibious aircraft

Russia is washed by the waters of 12 seas, over 2.5 million rivers and more than 2.7 million lakes on its territory. The length of the country's water border is twice the length of the land border and is almost 40 thousand km. In these conditions, aircraft capable of using both land lanes and water surfaces as airfields have great advantages.
