Photo Comment

Sneaky click of an Antei during while it was unloaded at one of the platforms of Sperenberg. The aircraft was first flown on 31 July 1975 and assigned to the air force with Aeroflot titles. The An-22 became RA-0883 on 24 February 1993 with 8th vtap. The transporter was put on a major overhaul with the 308th ARZ in late 1995 but was never completed. The aircraft was last seen at Ivanovo-Severny between May 1999 and August 2004, became derelict near the 308th ARZ hangars and was eventually broken up by Autumn 2004.
