Whoa. That's so insane it's awesome. And it would actually be IN SCALE with the game hexes!

"Flying SAM system?"

Firing S-75s?? I so wouldn't have wanted to be WSO onboard one of these things it's not even funny...
There's something eerily Miyasaki-esque in the idea of a squadron of these fortresses patrolling the night skies over Arctic Siberia, waiting for a swarm of B-36s (obviously).

Looks like enlarged and elongated DUKW with wings and rotors... Or almost like that flying ship by Verne
