Historical Context
The Antonov An-26 is a dependable military turboprop transport aircraft with decades of global service. Its first flight took place on May 21, 1969, with serial production beginning later that year at the Kyiv Aircraft Plant. Over the course of 17 years, 1,403 aircraft were produced — many of which remain active today.
This model replicates the "01 Blue" aircraft operated by the Ukraine Armed Forces, paying tribute to the essential role the An-26 plays in logistical support, personnel transport, and humanitarian missions. With movable propellers and rubberized landing gear, the model is both dynamic and authentically detailed.
