Like it or not, you have to admit that the Russkies know how to do big.
They had some very talented engineers and designers.
I saw a show about this plane on cable and it is an amazing aircraft.

The Russians have always and still are greatly enamored of “big” projects. Google “Maxim Gorky” and you can see that their love for big planes goes way back.
