In the most recent bit of Russian bizarreness, a 550-ton military hovercraft carrying sophisticated weaponry casually pulled up onto a crowded, seemingly public beach. Because, apparently, Russia wants to become Europe's own personal prison planet.

It's a hell of a beast no doubt. Would love to see it in the flesh, monster engineering!

I get the impression it wasn't military owned until now.

Exactly.

Imagine a whole fleet of those coming to pay you a visit. :eek:

Sir we are running out of fuel we need to moor somewhere. Put us on that beach ! But Sir there are people there and we don't own it. Once we land on the beach we will own it now take us on that beach now !
