The Ukrainian AN-225 is a super-heavy transport aircraft created by the Kyiv Antonov Aircraft Concern. The plane performed its first flight in 1988. Constructed in only one copy, the aircraft was the largest and the most powerful in the world. The “Mriya” was included into the Guinness Book of Records for achieving more than two hundred records on the same aircraft, which is a unique case in the history of world aviation.

In the first days of Russia's invasion of Ukraine, which began on February 24, 2022, the “Mriya” was insidiously destroyed at Gostomel Airport by an enemy aircraft attack during unsuccessful attempts to capture Kyiv. Only a few engines, wing elements and other construction details have survived, which can be used in the future to create a new legendary AN-225. Antonov Aircraft Concern plans to do that with the help of the current scientific and technical capacity. A special Fund for Contributions to the Restoration of the “Mriya” has been established.
