Is Russia working on a crazy supersonic cargo plane?

The heavy transport craft concept, dubbed the PAK TA, could fly at supersonic speeds of up to 2,000 km/h

A state-run Russian news site is reporting that the country has ambitions to build a huge, supersonic cargo plane capable of transporting tanks to the field in a matter of hours. While there’s plenty of reason to be skeptical that transporting such heavy loads at high speeds is even feasible, let alone realistic, Russia’s military is reportedly giving itself roughly the next decade to figure it out.
