The Tupolev ANT-9 Crocodile is one of the most unusual and overlooked Soviet aircraft ever built. Created from the ANT-9 airliner and transformed into a flying propaganda machine in 1935, it featured a wooden crocodile nose, dorsal spines and streamlined fairings. The aircraft toured dozens of cities, spreading Soviet messages and drawing huge crowds. This video explores its origins, design features, historical missions, the story behind its creators, and why no examples survived.
