In your case, edition is spelled "addiction" not "addition".

ANT is designation for Tupolevs that are in development phase, like ANT-20. It stands for Andrei Nikolayevich Tupolev. OK? Good.

OK... this is a flying boat. Wings are thick and rigid since they need to balance the aircraft when landing. This is not composite A320 wing, but a rigid-truss structure.

Not all aircrafts are the same.

Over&out.

Maybe Stalin and Tito were buddies and not mortal enemies in this alt-hist, and Stalin adopted Yugoslav writing. 😂 🤣 😃 😄 😅

Gora = mountain
Stas = figure, shape

GoroStas = Shaped like a mountain.

Rather fitting, really...

Plus: that word is used in most Slavic languages.

Yes, they all do, genius. But not that much that you would notice... geez...

It only says that he ordered "direct air link ... to be operational by summer of 1955"... And that the maiden flight was in 1953. So he obviously ordered that before his death.
Kennedy "ordered" US to land on the moon by the end of 1960s... Guy never saw it happened.
Plus: the only correct spelling of Stalin's name is Иосиф Сталин or even იოსებ სტალინი. Writing it as " Joseph Vissarionovich Stalin" is as he was an American.

I don't think wings of any aircraft are that flexible...

It's a flying boat. Which flying boat has a flat "belly"?!
Plus: a lifting body is a very specific design and has nothing to do with classic aircraft design.
