Yeah! LS-50 was developed by Telefunken for Hitler. Russian engineers took it from enemy and made own version GU-50.
It is very linear ray pentode and excellent both for audio and radio.
The guy on your link builds linear amplifiers using GU-50 tubes.
On his page he is standing near his Uragan-1 gear that had not been finished because authorities thought the he can't use GU-43 tube that may give 2 KW of output power so it could be technically possible to break the rules despite the power tranny is up to 1 KW only!
Uragan-2 is an amp made of mobile military transceiver R-140
Cube is amplifier with GU-74 output
The rest is amplifiers with GU-50 outputs.
Polew 4GU50 - 150-200W output FM, 650W SSB
3GU50 "Hi-End" - up to 450W SSB
2GU50 - 250W peak SSB
