On August 30 2016, members of the Aviation Industry Corporation of China (AICC) and the Antonov Corporation, the leading Ukrainian aviation company, signed an agreement to restart production of the AN-225, the world's largest cargo aircraft which first flown during the final days of the Soviet era in 1988.
 

The contract includes the establishment of two large production facilities for the new AN-225, located in Central and Southern China.

 

Antonov will deliver the necessary technological and purchase production equipment for the Chinese. The first completely redesigned AN-225 is expected to start flying in 2019.

 

An-225 weights 640 ton, powered by six engines is 84 meters in length and a wingspan of over 88 meters. It carries a payload of 250 tons ( or about 100 Terrex ICV armored vehicle. [:p])

Problem is how this plane fit most airport's runway lol

Antonov 125 and 225 are amazing plane from USSR era, it was made to be able to land at non sealed runaway as cargo support like C130.

I'm sure this plane is incredibly inefficient.

Using 1970s technology...

 

with the speed china lays railway tracks, they are far better off building a railway track to where they want...


Antonov is ukranian? I didn't know that. Always thought they were russian.

If it can land in KLIA, then other international airport runways can handle this behemoth, including Changi.

 

These aviation lovers in Malaysia were seen waiting just to watch it land simply because there is only one flying in the world now.
