Antonov

Antonov is a Ukrainian aircraft manufacturer and services company, celebrated for designing some of the world’s largest airplanes. While a significant portion of their business involves a large testing complex for durability and aerodynamic research and development, their most famous product is the colossal An-225 Mriya (destroyed in 2022), which was the world’s heaviest aircraft. Other well-known transports include the An-124 Ruslan, which is still in service and widely used for heavy airlift. Historical and current products include the An-2 biplane, the An-22 Antei, and a range of smaller transport and passenger aircraft like the An-148/158/178 family. The company continues to focus on modernization and design of new transport and special-purpose aircraft.
