Those two first planes does not at all look like WW2-era aircraft.

Actually, not any of them do.

First 2 are models, maybe a kit bash to make a cool looking fantasy airplane.

All that after that are American and German homebuilt "ground effect" craft.
While they could "hop" over obstacles up to 100~150 ft high, they are pretty much stuck to float just above the ground.

The Russians actually spent huge sums for military use examples, the "sea monsters", but AFAIK they where all prototypes.

The last to pictures show the "Bodeneffektfahrzeug" Rhein-Flugzeugbau RFB-114 (X-114). It was constructed in the 1970's for the german Ministry of Defense, based on a concept by Alexander Lippisch. First flight of the prototype was in April 1977. The X-114 had 6 seats and was powered by a 200 HP Lycoming engine. During the flight tests it shows a good and economic performance (endurance ca. 20 hrs, range 2.000 km, vmax 200 km/h). But the only prototype crashed during a test flight and the whole project was stopped.

A lot of countries had weird aircraft ideas. Italian efforts don't take second place to Soviet oddities in the WWII era

But your thread title was about Soviet WW2 aircraft, and it took you until the second page to make a tenuous link to WW2, and then you post this big photo of a model :-P
