    Pity the Albatross is a dead end. The Be-10 and Ka-27 are nice though, but who knows what the flying saucer is......

    No, it's not a Be-10 unfortunately....that would have been cool. It's just another example of choosing a prototype never built nonsense...Beriev R-1.

    Is the lifting body shape a Mig 105 Spiral?

    Yes, I think the Spiral analogue is actually one of the extras in the AN-22 kit (mislabeled as the CH-26 on Ike's excellent site).
