The need to rapidly deploy intercontinental ballistic missiles dictated the development of the huge An-22, powered by four mighty Kuv NK-12 turboprops driving eight-bladed contraprops. A sensation when it entered flight test in 1965, it was eclipsed in 1982 by the An-124, wh its 392-ton take-off weight and 120-ton payload. Developed from this s the 600-ton An-225, designed to carry components of the Buran space transport system piggy-back. The An-70 is also covered.
