      • The Orlyonok was created at Rostislav Alekseev's design bureau and entered Soviet Navy service in November 1979.
      • The ekranoplan carried up to 200 marines or two armored vehicles and reached 400–500 km/h.
      • The nose swings aside together with the pilots' cabin, which is how troops and equipment were loaded.
      • Five Orlyonoks were built in all, although the Navy's plans called for 120.
      • In summer 2007 the best-preserved example was towed along the Volga from Kaspiysk to Moscow.
      • During trials on the Volga in 1972, locals were told it was an airplane that had landed on the water and was being moved.
