Pneumoplan - Belarusian transport tomorrow
Belarusians write that they have invented a new type of transport - a pneumatic plane. In fact, it is a hitch from a tractor and several trailers under which air is forced. This reduces the pressure on the ground, and the weight of the payload increases to 5,000 tons. The maximum cargo width is up to 25 meters. Speed - up to 150 km / h.
“Pneumatic planes can take on part of the transport of such bulk goods as oil, coal, timber, building materials and structures, grain, and drinking water. They will make promising development of many mineral deposits in the uninhabited areas, the export of raw materials from where today is difficult. "
The problem with the Belarusians is only one. The project has so far been made only in the form of a small model. However, as they say: “With a powerful design base of the domestic automotive industry, this model can be turned into a real prototype of a pneumatic plan for a year, and it will take even less time to build a test track.”

Habralyudi, is there anyone savvy in mechanics, who can appreciate the genius or the idiocy of an idea? I understand correctly that reducing the pressure on the ground implies a deterioration in the adhesion of the wheels? In order to drive 5,000 tons of flying along a special highway at a speed of 150 km / h - some hack is needed, in my opinion.
UPD Found a detailed description of the project
