looks like some clever photo chop work, especially with the battleship batteries top and bottom
Here is the info
Bomber Designed in 1933 by Russia had a wingspan greater than a US B-52-Truth!

The K-7 first flew on 11 August 1933


In 1930s the Russian army was obsessed with the idea of creating huge planes. At that time, they were proposed to have as many propellers as possible to help carry those huge flying fortresses into the air. Jet propulsion has not been implemented yet.


Not many photos were saved from that time, because of the high secrecy levels of such projects and because a lot of time passed already. Still, on the photo below you can see one of such planes - a heavy bomber K-7.
