The plane was not caught in crossfire. It destruction was a result of the bombardment of the hanger, where it was stored.
They hit it with tbeir middle finger flying.. No reason, just a childish slap in the fae.. Sad 😔
Correct , the Russians had already seized the Airport. Ukraine shell the Airport to Deni use by the Russians.

It was commissioned by the USSR, but it was built by Antanov Design Bureau. A Ukranian Company.
It's not Ukrainian company. And it was simply assembled in Ukraine. Designed and engineered in USSR
... which was part of the USSR
Antonov was a Russian company that began in Novosibirsk by a Russian from Moscow. It only ended up in Kiev after the collapse of the Union.
Paid for by Moscow
Ukraine can't build such plane by itself. It was a work of all republics.
There's actually one in canada that was owned by Russia. They seized it when the war started, and now it is parked in view of the highway in Toronto, canada at Pearson Airport
Thats the antonov 124
@IkBenUFOpiloot you are right. My apologies
That's a much smaller one Antonov 124
@CBrasil1966 i know. But there is only one big antonov
I always see it
The chief of the designer was Petro Vasylovych Balabuyev, and he was Ukrainian.
Antonov died 1984 more than 4 years before the plane was ready.
🤔 Russia didn't do much it was Ukrainians... Russia didn't win WW2 the Americans helped them win it.....even the space program was Americans

I’m pretty sure they’re building s new one in a secret facility
Yeah in my backyard
I actually got to see the plane at DFW in 1995 when i worked for AA
I seen it in Canada at CAFB Trenton Ontario during a supply drop it’s so big it caught the runway fencing
The Ukraine, as I understand it, has said they had the parts for #2, and the said when the war is over, will build #2.

the spruce goose aka h-4 has a longer wing span even tho the an-225 mirya is the largest by weight.

But can it hold itself?
Bro it couldn’t even hold caseoh
Worlds largest air plane: I can carry 250 tons of weight
Caseoh: light work
What happened to the three engines on a left wing
Such a tragic loss of an awesome relic of aviation history!
I feel like i rewatched the sam 5 videos twice
I believe it was built in Ukraine
Yes, Soviet Union.
It is sad but why is the an225 ruins is on the parking lot?
It's called the AN 225 because it can carry 225 tons of payload max, not over 250.
Fun fact: it’s rebuilt and flying over Russia
It is wrong to destroy.
On the map you showed Hostomel airport somewhere near Zhytomyr,
WHAT AI DO YOU USE #3

Ukrainians
When a comedian leads your country
I still can't understand Ukraine. Couldn't they have transferred the plane to another country to operate from there?
shows how unproductive a war is
The stratolaunch actually had the largest wingspan
