Antonov Airlines is a Ukrainian cargo airline formed as a division of the Antonov aviation company. Based at Hostomel Airport near Kyiv, it operates international charter services in the oversized-cargo market. The Antonov An-225 Mriya (Dream) was a strategic airlift cargo aircraft that was designed by the Antonov Design Bureau in the Ukrainian SSR within the Soviet Union during the 1980s. Originally, this unique aircraft was developed as an enlargement of the Antonov An-124 to transport Buran-class orbiters. After successfully fulfilling its Soviet military missions, it was mothballed for eight years. It was then refurbished and reintroduced into commercial operation with Antonov Airlines, carrying oversized payloads. While a second airframe with a slightly different configuration was partially built, construction was halted more than once due to a lack of funding and interest.
Designed as a heavy lift transport for the Buran spaceplane, the An-225 was first flown on December 21st, 1988. © Copyright 2003-2022 The Flying Mule, Inc.
