摘要

FIELD: building of ground-effect craft, mainly cargo and passenger craft up to 8 t capacity. ^ SUBSTANCE: proposed ground-effect craft has center-wing section provided with aerodynamic profiles in longitudinal sections. Cigar-shaped fuselage of ground-effect craft is mounted on center-wing section. Crew cabin and passenger saloon are located in fuselage. Hollow hermetic longitudinal beams are mounted over periphery of center-wing section at its ends. Inflatable shock-absorbing balloons are mounted under longitudinal beams. Two keels with rudders are installed on tips of longitudinal beams. Horizontal tail located on keel includes elevator located between keels and ailerons located on section of peripheral cantilevers. Pusher-type horizontal thrust propeller is enclosed in ring-shaped external fairing. Screw propeller engine is mounted inside fairing of tail fuselage. Takeoff and landing complex includes units for creating static air cushion under center-wing section. ^ EFFECT: improved flight and technical characteristics. ^ 9 cl, 9 dwg
