Antonov Ukraine

Plans are being made to rebuild the world's largest plane first destroyed by Russian forces in the early days of its invasion of Ukraine -- though its manufacturer says such a goal remains far off.

Washington's decision to send more military aid to Ukraine increases the risk of a military clash between Russia and the West, said Anatoly Antonov, Russia's ambassador to the United States.

In the ongoing Russia-Ukraine war, the world's biggest plane - Ukraine's Antonov-225 - was destroyed in Russian strikes. Ukraine's state-owned Ukroboronprom said on Sunday that the plane was destroyed at the Antonov airport in Gostomel near Kyiv.

Ukraine's main plane maker told US President-elect Donald Trump on Wednesday that he may want to purchase one of its jets after he called Boeing's version of Air Force One too costly.

The world's largest cargo aircraft, Antonov AN -225 Mriya -- or the Dream, is scheduled to make its first landing in India today at the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport in Hyderabad, the Ukraine company's collaborators in Mumbai said on Wednesday.

An agreement was reached between Anil Ambani, Chairman of the Reliance Group and Oleg Gladkovskyi, Deputy Secretary of the National Security and Defence Council of Ukraine and the Chairman of the Inter-Agency Committee of Ukraine for Military Technical Cooperation and Export Control Policy on the sidelines of the Defence Expo at Goa.

President Vladimir Putin said Tuesday that Russia must defend itself if threatened, as the US warned against a return to a "Cold War status" after Moscow announced plans to boost its nuclear arsenal.

Russia is demanding to know why international investigators have yet to publish the black box data from a Malaysian airliner that was shot down over eastern Ukraine in July, a deputy defence minister said in an interview published on Saturday.

At least one person died when an Antonov AN-24 plane of Ukraine's domestic airlines with 36 passengers on board made an emergency landing on Wednesday at Donetsk in the east of the country, news agencies reported.
