AIR VICTORY GEORGIA

 

The AN-12 was designed to meet a Soviet Air Force requirement for a tactical air lifter in the late 1950s. Production began in 1958 and more than 1240 had been built to date.

Many AN-12's have been upgraded and given a new lease of life in the commercial cargo world, and are extremely effective for short to medium range destinations.

With a rear loading ramp, roof-mounted gantry crane and onboard winches and hoists to assist loading oversized / bulk cargo, which allows the aircraft to be virtually self - supporting and less reliant on sophisticated handling equipment, the AN-12 is truly the most versatile and cost-effective freighter in the 20 ton category.

The AN-12 has a flight crew of between five and seven comprising of two pilots, radio operator, flight engineer, navigator and load masters.
