          Rostislav Alexeyev

          Rostislav Evgenievich Alexeev (, , , , – , , , ) was a designer of highspeed shipbuilding.

          He invented and designed the world's first s. His work has been compared to that of A.N. Tupolev in and S.P. Korolev in space flight.

          Hydrofoil ships

          Alexeev was the first to create high speed ships on the so-called low submerged underwater wings, the most popular ones beings passenger ships "Raketa", "Volga", "Meteor", "Kometa", "Burevestnik" with passenger capacity up to 150 persons and cruising speed up to 100 km/h.

          Ekranoplans

          Alexeev revolutionised the ship-building industry (though in secrecy) by inventing crafts that use ground effect, whereby (in very simple terms) a wing traveling close to the ground is provided with extra lift by the "cushion" of air compressed under it - thereby enabling a combination of greater aircraft weight for less power and/or enhanced fuel economy.

          The KM or "korabl-maket", the largest ekranoplan ever built, was one of the
