In the late 1950s, the Antonov design bureau began developing the An-22 heavy military transport, intended to carry 50 tons. Powered by four 15,000 hp turboprops, it was the world's heaviest transport when it first flew in February 1965. The four-turbofan An-124 was again the world's most capable airlifter when it emerged in 1982, with a payload of 120 tons. It proved its worth in military and humanitarian operations and earned acclaim as a commercial freighter after 1991 for carrying heavy and outsized items. The unique six-engined An-225 \"Mriya\" was created for carrying the Buran space shuttle. Despite the demise of the Buran program, the aircraft found use on the heavy\/outsized cargo transportation market. It is illustrated by a wealth of new photos and color artwork, as well as line drawings.\u003cstrong\u003e​\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 288\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.1 x 11.1 x 8.4 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e November 28, 2020\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45768848310469,"sku":"9780764360718","price":69.39,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0757\/6718\/5605\/files\/SU42cExKK3l3YldYRzRrblBzL3VJQT09_7d7ddc80-6b53-4f8f-ad16-2e389b363cb9.webp?v=1770448958","url":"https:\/\/selloorium.com\/products\/antonovs-heavy-transports-from-the-an-22-to-an-225-1965-to-the-present-hardcover-1","provider":"Selloorium","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
