a comment from YT reads: another decade another ground effect vehicle. this' been going for 60 years now.

of course it is quite unclear how is this applicable for harsh conditions in open seas where waves can be scary high (or deep if u prefer).



Doesn’t need to go in the ocean to be useful. You wouldn’t want to take a Rib across the Atlantic but they’re still highly useful craft.


I actually hope this becomes real vehicle, although it seems, and my comment perhaps amplified it, that there’s a sentiment reflecting doubts about the feasibility of the technology at all.

Maybe it works for large lakes and hot seas at all.
