The Antonov 225, once the largest aircraft in the world, the heaviest aircraft ever built and with the largest wingspan, now rests in pieces at the Hostomel airport near Kyiv. It was built as a carrier for the Soviet space craft Buran, it had survived the dissolution of Soviet Union, storage time, repairs and refurbishment, financial difficulties and problems and would serve for many years, carrying huge objects, machines and cargo only to end its career as a victim of battle that took place around it.

It's kinda crazy seeing a history channel talking about recent events, knowing that this stuff is literally history in the making.
Agreed
history lessons we wont be graded on tho
@@coldvro people born in 2013+ would beg to differ lol
I bet people born in 2052 will be teached about the war in ukraine
Crazy times
To people who say it’s just a plane.. bruh I’m not a plane fan but I still feel the loss I mean look at how big it was and how it showed how far human technology came to this day , I say RIP AN we have have a memorial for it after the war
Don’t forget about the millions of pounds of PPE she flew across the world during COVID
she will be the memorial because there is no doubt she will be rebuilt
It would be more fitting to cal it by it's name instead of AN since that's the company that made it. Still RIP
She may be destroyed now, but Mriya shall fly again, she is too much of an icon to leave in ruins.
I mean it was partially destroyed I think with enough time it could be repaired or rebuilt I mean the parts are still there.
My father saw this aircraft at the Paris Airshow. When I learned about the plane all on my own around the time it was destroyed, I let my dad know because he was a big aircraft enthusiast; he basically teared up on the other end of the phone.
How very unfortunate, all because of this war :(
lol
Son says: Dad, 300 people (and children among them) were deliberately killed inside the theater in Mariupol with huge letters saying "kids" around it. Dad says: ok. Son says: the biggest plane was destroyed. Dad cries.

I live in Kiev. I saw this beautifull plane, and walked inside its really huge cargo-bay, on several airshows. I was on many of those, cause I like aviation so much.
You now, I'm crying, when I watch this video.
Thanks a lot, for your emphathy, and for the Truth, about this terrible war.

Man we lost two of the most legendary pieces of technology in the most recent years
The Arecibo observatory in 2020 due to natural causes.
And the Antonov AN-225 in 2022 due to war.
May these legendary feats of human creation live on in the memories of members of the aviation and space observation communities
Soon the internation space station too. Kind of makes me sad how things end up sometimes.
Nowhere near legendary
Arecibo fell because of no maintenance lol
@@Troonielicious Puerto Rico barely has any money to even sustain itself…
trust me, I know
Not to mention The Concorde ...
Given global logistics I'm surprised they never built a second one. Cargo ships just keep getting larger, logically cargo planes should too? Hopefully people will notice the loss and there will be justification to make more of these, it's a proven design with years of reliable flight time.
I think the primary issue with cargo planes getting bigger, is that there's only so much size such a machine can put on before the use of rare or hard to manufacture materials are required to allow it to fly efficiently and safely; whereas a ship is only limited by its ability to float, something that is simpler to work with.
Don't warry when new world order will commence
Jeff bezzos and Amazon will order one to go to mars
They have a another but he is part ans was never finish !
Lasangna Kob had a good point but it’s seems even more basic, early on with the space shuttle he states that getting to a 10k altitude would allow the shuttle to use 90% less fuel to reach space.
It’s a physics problem with the fuel, at some point the object becomes so heavy and resistant to movement that the energy needed to move it is taken up by the machinery now needing a pony power source.
Aka why we don’t build Fred Flintstone cars anymore.
You cannot really compare those. For Ships, weight does not matter too much they usually are limited by size since they need to fit through channels and into habors.
Airplanes are limited by weight. More weight means more fuels which also weighs a lot. As a result, the cost per ton of cargo goes up dramatically to a point where it's not economical anymore. It still can be useful to have a plane like the AN-225 since it can transport stuff that no other plane can but the market for that is very limited.
*RIP, it was a plane that made many people fall in love with aviation*
Don't worry, the Dream shall fly again.

@@jackshadows8073 It was FUNDED by Russians, but build by Ukrainians.
@@jackshadows8073 western plane companies will likely donate lots of parts after ukraine wins
@@jackshadows8073 it can be rebuilt, they have the schematics and engineers all around the globe interested to rebuild it better than before, also there is a 30 years old incomplete fuselage sitting around a hangar somewhere so half of the work is done already.
The problem is timing(it can't be done while the country is at war, Russia would just destroy it again) and costs...Its estimated that this project is gonna cost over 3 BILLIONS of dollars to be completed, this money would be much better spent restoring the country than using it to rebuilt the airplane.
Well, maybe we will see it flying again in our lifetimes, but I wouldn't expect it anytime soon.
I now understand how ancient masterpieces were reduced to ruins in war.
I've seen that plane landing in person and it's the most spectacular thing i've ever seen. The sound the size the power, mindblowing

So sad

Hey simple history I greatly appreciate you guys making a video on the Antonov aircraft. I have a short story to tell you two weeks before it was destroyed in Ukraine it was at ywg Winnipeg airport in Canada. I was one the last lucky few people to See it land and take off and be loaded with cargo. I greatly appreciate what you've done with this video talking about it. As one as the last guy to work on that aircraft I truly hope that Russia pays I find and fix the plane because we need it so badly.

Yes, I hope so
That's right. Apparently it was 60-70% complete, but was eventually deemed "economically unfeasible". I can't find anything on it's current status for some reason
Great idea.
To use unfinished AN-225 airframe to build a new plane? You must be joking.

Yeah it's quite sad a part of a great history is destroyed over a man who wants more land space.
During the storming of the airport, Russian troops deliberately came from the other side.They knew that this plane was here, so they didn't touch it.The next morning, the artillery of Ukraine destroyed the Yan-225, thinking that there were Russian tanks and armored personnel carriers under the hangar, although they knew that only people were landing.Also, Russian heavy equipment was too far away to reach him with shots.

Never thought I'd see the day where Simple History would do modern day events lol.

well thats because it is history being made live
history is not only the past but what happens now
That’s actually the second video that covers a modern event.
I have a photo where my grandfather and his colleagues stand side by side against the background of Mria with Buran. He previously worked at Antonov. It is very painful to see this huge plane destroyed.
It remains only to believe that it will be rebuilt. And I really believe it.
I saw the An 124 a decade ago, and it absolutely dwarfed the boeing 737s around it. I can't imagine the size of this beast. The were shipping combines in it if that gives you an idea of how big their second biggest plane was.
737s are small

And here I am just NOW hearing about it. 21 years of my life ignorant of its existence, only to find out that this magnificent piece of human engineering has been destroyed back in February…
Ain’t life grand!?
I discovered one of my favorite bands (Morphine) after the main guy (Mark Sandman ) died and they were no more. Life's a bytch. There are a few videos of the Anatov flying in real life here on you tube. Let's hope the world survives for you to quadruple your 21 yrs. Good luck.
@@bigcity2085 Thanks man. I’ll check them out later.
Don't worry, even if you don't know such existence, there's always the other people who knows it *(In this case, the Plane enthusiasts and Professional Pilots do).* They'll never be forgotten and will always be known by humanity.
You can say you're not an avgeek.
Because that is literally *the only way* you can not have ever known of this beauty's existence, dude.
And tell me about it. All my life I've wanted to see this bird with my own two eyes.
Now that dream, along with so many others, has been shattered...
@@davecrupel2817 Yeah,I've seen video's on it, but I know its not the same....you can't get the scale of the immensity of the thing. Somewhere I saw some company is sending putin a 3 billion dollar bill...to build another one(not sure if that was here.) But there was a need for it..people paid big bucks to use it.
I saw this aircraft earlier last year when it got diverted up to Fairbanks international, still have photos of it on my phone. Crazy to think that the beast has now been killed. Crazy, and quite sad.
I remember having made a presentation for the Antonov in school. I spended hours making the presentation and it payed of. I never thought i would get so emotional when she gets destroyed, but here i am. I hope there will be peace as soon as possible.
I saw the news a few weeks ago and was heartbroken. One of my favorite modern planes, a one of a kind, destroyed. RIP Antonov
That feeling when things you've lived through become an instant history.
He was saying Putin invaded in Feb 2022 and I'm like.. damn wait I just loved through that. It isn't history ... That's so weird
Remember it passing over my village in Italy. It was very low, as an airport is near it. It was just amazing. As an aviation lover these news shocked me.
I would give anything to see such a magnificent aircraft see the skies once again

@@door-to-doorhentaisalesman2978 hahahaha not like you can give that anyways.
I was able to walk through the cargo bay of this plane and watch it perform a steep takeoff and banking maneuver during a 1990 airshow in the US. I hope that myself and others can see this plane fly again one day.
it was actually made in the Soviet Union before it became Russian only when the Soviet Union ended was the plane inherited to Ukraine
It is strange to watch a ‘history channel’ make historical videos about our time.
I thought the same haha 😂
My thoughts exactly
People usually don't feel like it's a historical event when it happens during their time. But I think most people can see that this plane was a piece of living history.
As Roosevelt says,
Yesterday was History
Tommorow is a Mystery
I never thought I would see a history channel cover a event that happened in 2022, but here we are
'Space Shuttle' is the name of the U.S. model of spaceplane, Buran is the name of the Soviet model of spaceplane. Calling the Buran as a 'Space Shuttle' is like calling a UAZ-469 as a 'Jeep'.
They will repair it regardless of which side wins this war and who's hands it falls into. This Airplane is a piece of Human history and needs to be repaired ASAP.
And with how much the contribution it has given by it's size, I wanna see this 'Dream' being mass produced if possible
@@gehcontent5618 Would be economical unlogic. Also it would take her status.
As an aviation nerd, I’m glad they made a video on the 225, this war has ruined many lives. The 225 will always live in our hearts. This is such a horrible event.
It was one of my dreams to see this plane one day in real life as it was the biggest but I never expected it to be destroyed at all. Just goes to show how reckless the war is…
I always been a fan of this massive plane as a kid, and I was pretty sad when I heard of it’s demise

Although the original aircraft can’t be rebuilt, there is a second incomplete AN-225. I believe the second one is in the hanger across from where it was parked.
But we sadly don't know how it looks like right now, possibly the Russians destroyed that too
@@Drache191200 Shut up. The russians didnt even destroy the first one

Add this to the list of things Putin has ruined.
When i first saw the news about this, I realized that this is just another pain to Ukraine even since the war is ongoing for 1 month.

That plane was made and financed by the Soviet Union. Not just Ukraine.
What originally started as a Soviet space project became a world record holder in the 21st century such a shame it went down like that.
this was a loss that was absolutely unnecessary
I think it was intentional. That huge jet was a symbol of Ukrainian power and cultural pride. Putin's military leadership might have done it to try to hit morale amongst their adversaries.
Me and my daughter actually got to see this amazing plane fly over Long Eaton on its way to East Midlands Airport in 2014. We were mesmerised by its enormity and power. So glad we shared that moment as now she lays broken 😢

It's a shame they couldn't fly it out of there to save it. A bigger shame is that Russia is attacking Ukraine and people are dying.
Boy, what's the use of blaming? For example, there are many versions of why the AN-225 was destroyed. Starting from the accidental hit of a Russian missile into a hangar, ending with the shelling of Ukrainian artillery. In addition, many will tell you that Ukraine received this plane by pure chance after the collapse of the USSR, the plane was supposed to be advertised for Russia, but due to problems with the organization it was never taken out of the Ukrainian airfield where it was at that moment. The most important thing is that there are instructions and drawings, the rest is a matter of financing.
@@bobigorg1665 Well I guess the use in blaming is so we know who is responsible. Regardless of who hit the plane, it would be fine had Russia not attacked Ukraine. I wasn't really trying to start a conversation about who killed the plane, just that it's a shame that it's now gone. Also pointing out that the plane is far less important than the lives being lost right now.
You know when you just heard something sad and it’s not so sad that you will cry but it still sad and you get like a pressure in your eyes, that just happened when he said the Antonov was the last of its kind

Some rumors that it is getting rebuilt
F for plane has made big contributions to Ukraine economics and people
The Antonov 225 was a true dream, it helped with the earthquake in Haiti and delivered medical supplies to those in need, but all dreams come to an end. 🤧You were truly a legend myria, may you truly rest in peace. I can still hear the screech of your turbofan engines... Thank you for your service
However, the An-225 was destroyed not by russian troops, but after the landing of russian airborne and the capture of the airfield in Gostomel by ukrainian artillery, which tried to push them from this strategic point.
The nice thing about it is how it was never a war plane. It was a working horse an Impressive piece of aviation technology. We the west like to remember the USSR as a failing corrupt system( in the end it was). But it did had some golden years and made some wonderful progress in broad fields not only military.
Well technically it wasn't destroyed by Russian, it was destroyed by an artillery shell from the Ucranian forces
Moscow Golden Horde did this.
@Jacob Klein To be clear, first no need to talk crap, second the airport was taken by Russian, what caused the bombardment
А вы хоть знаете что этот самолёт был разработан когда Украина и Россия назывались совецкий союз? Разработан самолёт был российской компанией Антонов, для нужд России, а затем его выкупила украинская частная компания для перевозки крупногабаритных грузов на заказ.
То что он принадлежал украинской компании это не заслуга Украины, а просто стечение обстоятельств!
Антонов это советское конструкторское бюро, находившееся в Украинской ССР. Антоновское КБ так и перешло Украине и никто не собирался его выкупать.
Да и в видео не говорится, что все это заслуга Украины. Политической повестки нет.
Constructed in Ukrainian SSR by Ukrainian Engineer's, this only sponsored by Moscow budget, nothing more, Ukraine constructed it and doesn't matter when it was done
@@mrex1r4
actually, there's a table in Wikipedia about what Soviet Republics contributed to an225 (for example Uzbek SSR made central parts of wings, chassis were designed and made in RSFSR etc.) Though, most part was done in Ukrainian SSR.
and both Antonov(founder of bureau) and Tolkachev(main constructor) were from RSFSR
I think people need to understand, that it was multinational project
1:08 man… that wreckage.
It's important to remember people that this isn't about NATO. Ukraine had foregone any dream of joining NATO days before the attack. This isn't about NATO expansion, which may be an issue to a certain degree but this specific situation isn't about that.
One day I know that this aircraft will be rebuilt bigger and better than ever.
Russia was trying to surpress Ukrainian national movement long before NATO ever existed
@@fungunsun1 Indeed.
Also spread the reminder
Russian Government ≠ the Russian People
NATO expansion never threatened Russia to begin with. NATO would never invade Russia due to nukes and MAD. With the fact that Russias neighbors fear Russias aggression. They want to join NATO. Meaning that Russia cant invade the for population and resources. Therefore NATO really only threatened Russias interest in invading ita neighbors. As seen wtih Georgi and Ukraine. And Russias threats to Finland, Sweden, Bosnia, and Switzerland.
Actually, NATO was created to protect Western Europe from the USSR, but that's the problem, the USSR has been gone for 30 years, and NATO has begun to expand to the east, besides, more and more funding has been coming to this bloc every year. Alas, but this really should not be overlooked. Russia insisted that Ukraine would remain a neutral country, the United States and Europe could not give a confident answer. but after the Maidan in 2014, the government of Ukraine decided that it was necessary to raise the issue of its own nationalism... This is a very difficult issue, but, in short, the government of Ukraine is not able to control its national military formations. Therefore, this is the threat.

I am so glad I got to see this awesome thing when I was 9 I got 50 feet away from it. RIP an 225 we love you
Sad to see such a piece of brilliant engineering go to waste. I always loved the AN-225 and it's huge size. Hope it gets rebuilt or the second air frame is finished. For now, may it rest in airplane heaven. I hate you, Putin.
