Historical Background:
This Antonov An-12 model replicates the real aircraft operated by Meridian Aviation, temporarily repainted in United States Air Force colors for the production of the movie World War Z. Due to the unavailability of actual American military aircraft for the film, the An-12 was selected and visually modified to represent a USAF transport plane of the 305th Airlift Wing, McGuire Air Force Base. While never in actual USAF service, the aircraft is notable for its cinematic role and striking, non-standard livery.
