A company is selling one of the actual space shuttles from the little-known Russian space shuttle program: http://www.buran.ru/htm/eshop.htm[^]
Does it come with optional accessories such as, say, a launch pad?

I think it comes with a box of Depends, so that you don't crap yourself when you realize you've just voluntarily entered a soviet space vehicle, and the guy next to you starts throwing switches and saying, "Let's see how this baby handles!"

Created for development of automatic landing, Buran 002 is a full size analoque of orbital ship built of the same materials and under the same technology as space models. I want a real one!! One that has flown to space!! :( :) P.S. What is analoque? did he mean analogue?

Yeah. If you noticed, that one had 4 jet engines in the back. Still, it would sure raise eyebrows when you were coming in for a landing at the local airport! :-D

Yep, they did the shuttle the same way they got the bomb. Except in the shuttle's case they didn't have to steal the plans, they simply bought them outright. Having been married to a Russian and having spent a lot of time in Russia and on Russian aircraft, and knowing their general approaches to things and their quality control the way I do, I wouldn't want to be in the same state as a launch of the darned thing.
