Sorry,---it would not have happened with out the USA, and russia has been an impoverished citizenry while people in the USA flourished with their minds, and their freedom.

    Not very compatible with stormy weather though. And you could only imagine how large was its turning arc. I think the only role it was good for was the short-range-rockets-carrying interceptor. But when the same result can be achieved with hypersonic rockets from ground-based launchpads or bomber planes, then it gets redundant. Still, it is a fun concept and a good-looking machine.

    The crazier thing was the mass popularity of technics, machinery and engineering in society in 1900-1970s. Magazines like Popular Mechanics were actually quite, well, popular in Soviet Union. And the Unoin published its own analogical magazines too. And it was just a part of a social ssytem which also included technical-oriented child clubs, youth societies, practical sections and home enthusiasts communities, educational materials, do-it-yourself kits, tech propaganda in literature, cartoons, movies, newspapers, and much more. Nothing like this is to be seen since. Not even the "self-success" or "obey and survive" propaganda is that impressive.

To use your towing example, if you towed another car then yes you’d use more fuel, but the other car wouldn’t use any. And if the other car was a racecar with a small and light fueltank, you could put it inside a semi-truck and since the Semi doesn’t need to worry about being light and nimble on a racetrack it can have much larger fuel tanks. Which means even tho it would use more fuel, then it wouldn’t have to stop to refuel on the way to and from the racetrack, while the racecar wouldn’t be able to make that trip on it’s own

    Funny thing is that the Zveno (literally meaning "chain link") really was referred to as "flying circus" amongst the military. BTW, the Oka, being a reactive mortar, had a brother called 2A3 Condensator (more like "compensator", lol), which was an actual 406-mm nuclear-capable self-propelled artillery cannon. A moving naval gun. Sick. But still not as sick as D-80 with 535-mm. I guess, it's about that time the soviets ran out of amphetamines produced during WW2, so the thing was never actually built. Living in Saint-Petersburg, Russia, I have seen some of those in the flesh, like the Oka or the 2K4 Filin ("Owl") missile carrier. A direct look kinda makes you glad they were never put to use.

What you had in mind was probably the period of 15-20 final years of USSR's existence, when it was something resembling a real socialism. However, let me remind you, USSR existed for about 70 years, and most of them were veeery far from a "good life". Any extent of "good life" was limited time wise to approx. Brezhnev's ruling period, and only to those loyal to the regime (and to those unloyal, there were prisons and psychiatric clinics). Tell about a "good life" to those multiple millions who perished during state invoked famines, mass deportations, red terror, mass killings, war crimes towards civil population, literally countless innocent victims of GULag, etc. Also, tell about a "good life" to those many millions of peasants, who were effectively slaves, had no ID, no right of free moving, no real payment for their hard work, all the way until the end of 1960'ies. Speaking about bullsh*tting, I meant state propaganda, again both inside and outside the country. Blatant, sheer, boundless. Nazis and Goebbels didn't invent state propaganda; they only borrowed it from the red comrades, just like concentration camps and other attributes. These regimes were like twin brothers. However, the big Nuremberg Trial is still to happen against the reds. Anyway.... I listed a few largest aspects, but the subject is very wide, and impossible to cover well in a comments format.

    The ekranoplanes have not been completely forgotten, recently tests of the new Orion-25 ekranoplane were conducted in Petrozavodsk. Of course, it is not as big as KM, but most likely, it will soon be seen in operation as a rescue vessel. Of the most interesting things at the moment: Roscosmos is building a nuclear-powered space tug. I don't know why it's needed, but it sounds cool. Well, the construction of the largest nuclear icebreaker (I think it's already clear why)

    the Tsar tank design wasn't moving away from classic caterpillar designs, because these designs weren't standard yet: when the Tsar tank was designed and tested in 1914/1915, British Mark tanks didn't exist, the Renault FT didn't exist, and the existing projects like the Schneider CA1 hadn't proved their usefulness yet

    Initially hydraulics were considered, but to counter recoil force, the system itself would require flexible tubing made out of materials, which did not exist at the time. Amount of force which was produced by recoil was so great that any hydraulic system would have exploded after first shot. Muzzle breaks were also installed, however, as calculations have shown, it showed signs of damage after first shot and was ripped out after 3rd, resulting in exploded barrel.

    There's nothing crazy about the ideas behind some of these machines. The Kalinin plane was an ancestor of the Antonov "Mriya" heavy transport aircraft which can move stuff no other plane can, and Roberto Bartini's idea was to engineer a plane which could take off from any surface. Some Soviet engineers worked under awful conditions and all of them had to deal with constrained resources. Give credit where credit is due

And 18 January 1911, Ely landed his Curtiss Pusher airplane on a platform on the armored cruiser USS Pennsylvania anchored in San Francisco Bay. So no.

Nowadays it is almost impossible to get such resources and government support.
