'''Antonov''' ([[Trade name|d/b/a]] '''Antonov Company''',{{Efn|Ukrainian: Державне підприємство «Антонов»}} formerly the '''Aeronautical Scientific-Technical Complex named after Antonov''' or '''Antonov ASTC''',{{Efn|Ukrainian: Авіаційний науково-технічний комплекс імені Антонова, [АНТК ім. Антонова]}} and earlier the '''Antonov Design Bureau''', for its chief designer, [[Oleg Antonov (aircraft designer)|Oleg Antonov]]) is a Ukrainian aircraft manufacturing and services company. Antonov's particular expertise is in the fields of very large aeroplanes and aeroplanes using unprepared [[runway]]s. Antonov (model prefix "An-") has built a total of approximately 22,000 aircraft, and thousands of its planes are operating in the [[former Soviet Union]] and in [[developing countries]].<ref>{{cite web |url=https://antonov.com/en/activity |title=Information About the Company |website= antonov.com |access-date=13 April 2022 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://timetravel.mementoweb.org/memento/2011/http://www.antonov.com/about |archive-date=27 February 2018}}</ref>

Antonov Company is a state-owned commercial company originally established in [[Novosibirsk]], Russian Soviet Federative Socialist Republic (RSFSR).  In 1952, the company relocated to Kiev, Ukrainian SSR, then part of the Soviet Union.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20110221084317/http://www.antonov.com/contacts.xml "Contacts"]{{webarchive |url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110221084317/http://www.antonov.com/contacts.xml |date=21 February 2011 }}. Retrieved on 5 February 2011.</ref> On 12 May 2015, it was transferred from the [[Ministry of Economic Development and Trade (Ukraine)|Ministry of Economic Development and Trade]] to the [[Ukroboronprom]] (Ukrainian Defense Industry).<ref>[http://www.ukrinform.ua/ukr/news/kabmin_viddav_atonov_ukroboronpromu_2052372 Cabinet of Ukraine gave Antonov to Ukroboronprom] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150518115709/http://www.ukrinform.ua/ukr/news/kabmin_viddav_atonov_ukroboronpromu_2052372 |date=18 May 2015 }}.

In June 2016, Ukraine's major state-owned arms manufacturer [[Ukroboronprom]] announced the creation of the Ukrainian Aircraft Corporation within its structure, to combine all aircraft manufacturing enterprises in Ukraine.

==History==
===Soviet era===
[[File:Flugzeug Antonov An-2 D-FKMC.jpg|thumb|[[Antonov An-2]], mass-produced Soviet utility aeroplane.]]
[[File:Antonov A-15 1999 by Jiri Havlice.jpg|thumb|right|[[Antonov A-15]] in Czech markings]]
====Foundation and relocation====
The company was established in 1946 at the [[Novosibirsk Aircraft Production Association]] as the top-secret Soviet '''Research and Design Bureau No. 153''' ('''OKB-153'''). It was headed by [[Oleg Antonov (aircraft designer)|Oleg Antonov]] and specialised in [[turboprop]] [[military transport aircraft]]. The task was to create an [[agricultural aircraft]] CX-1 (An-2), the first flight of which occurred on 31 August 1947. The [[Antonov An-2|An-2 biplane]] was a major achievement of this period, with hundreds of these aircraft still operating as of 2013.<ref name="korr" /> In addition to this biplane and its modifications, a small series of gliders A-9 and A-10 were created and built in the pilot production in [[Novosibirsk]]. In 1952, the Bureau was relocated to Kyiv, a city with a rich [[aviation]] history and an aircraft-manufacturing infrastructure restored after the destruction caused by [[World War II]].

====First serial aircraft and expansion====
[[File:An-12 in flight.jpg|thumb|[[Antonov An-12|An-12]], [[Cold War]]-era tactical transport, in flight]]
[[File:001 An-12, Malmo Airport, Sweden.jpg|thumb|47-year-old [[Antonov An-12|An-12]] still in operational condition in 2011]]

The 1957 introduction of the [[Antonov An-10|An-10]]/[[Antonov An-12|An-12]] family of mid-range turboprop aeroplanes began the successful production of thousands of these aircraft. Their use for both heavy combat and civilian purposes around the globe continues to the present; the [[Antonov An-10|An-10]]/[[Antonov An-12|An-12]] were used most notably in the [[Vietnam War]], the [[Soviet–Afghan War]] and the [[Chernobyl disaster|Chernobyl disaster relief megaoperation]].

In 1959, the bureau began construction of the separate Flight Testing and Improvement Base in suburban [[Hostomel]] (now the [[Antonov Airport]]).

In 1965, the [[Antonov An-22]] heavy military transport entered serial production to supplement the An-12 in major military and humanitarian [[airlift]]s by the Soviet Union. The model became the first Soviet [[wide-body aircraft]], and it remains the world's largest turboprop-powered aircraft. Antonov designed and presented a [[Nuclear aircraft|nuclear-powered]] version of the An-22. It was never flight tested.

In 1966, after the major expansion in the [[Sviatoshyn]] neighbourhood of the city, the company was renamed to another disguise name: "Kiev Mechanical Plant". Two independent aircraft production and repair facilities, under engineering supervision of the Antonov Bureau, also appeared in Kiev during this period.

====Prominence and Antonov's retirement====
[[File:Tatarstan Airlines Antonov An-24 Pichugin-1.jpg|thumb|right|[[An-24|Antonov An-24]], the Soviet Union's most common [[regional airliner]]]]

In the 1970s and early 1980s, the company established itself as the Soviet Union's main designer of military transport aircraft with dozens of new modifications in development and production. After Oleg Antonov's death in 1984, the company was officially renamed as the '''Research and Design Bureau named after O.K. Antonov''' ({{langx|ru|link=no|Опытно-конструкторское бюро имени О.К. Антонова}}) while continuing the use of "Kiev Mechanical Plant" alias for some purposes.

====Late Soviet-era: superlarge projects and first commercialisation====
[[File:An-225 front day V1.jpg|thumb|right|[[An-225]] which was previously the largest operative aircraft in the world was recently destroyed in 2022.]]
In the late 1980s, the Antonov Bureau achieved global prominence after the introduction of its extra large aeroplanes. The [[Antonov An-124|An-124 "Ruslan"]] (1982) became the Soviet Union's mass-produced [[military transport aircraft|strategic airlifter]] under the leadership of Chief Designer [[Viktor Tolmachev]].{{citation needed|date=October 2017}} The Bureau enlarged the "Ruslan" design even more for the [[Buran programme|Soviet spaceplane programme]] logistics, creating the [[Antonov An-225 Mriya|An-225 "Mriya"]] in 1985. "Mriya" was the world's largest and heaviest aeroplane.<ref>{{Cite news |last= |date=2023-03-10 |title=Ukraine detains officials over destruction of famous plane at start of war |language=en |work=[[Reuters]] |url=https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/ukraine-detains-officials-over-destruction-famous-plane-start-war-2023-03-10/ |access-date=2023-05-09}}</ref>

The end of the [[Cold War]] and [[perestroika]] allowed the Antonov company's first step to commercialisation and foreign expansion. In 1989, the [[Antonov Airlines]] subsidiary was created for its own aircraft maintenance and [[cargo airline|cargo]] projects.

===Independent Ukraine===
{{Expand section|date=April 2013}}
Antonov Design Bureau remained a state-owned company after Ukraine achieved its independence in 1991 and is since regarded as a strategic national asset.

Since independence, Antonov has certified and marketed both Soviet-era and newly developed models for sale in new markets outside of the former soviet sphere of influence. New models introduced to serial production and delivered to customers include the [[Antonov An-140]], [[Antonov An-148]] and [[Antonov An-158]] [[regional airliner]]s.

Among several modernisation projects, Antonov received orders for upgrading "hundreds" of its [[Antonov An-2|An-2]] utility planes still in operation in [[Azerbaijan]], [[Cuba]] and Russia to the An-2-100 upgrade version.<ref name="korr">{{cite news | url=http://korrespondent.net/business/companies/1579862-rossiya-zakazala-u-antonova-usovershenstvovannye-kukuruzniki | script-title=ru:Россия заказала у Антонова усовершенствованные кукурузники | work=[[Korrespondent]] | date=11 July 2013 | access-date=4 September 2013 | language=ru | archive-date=14 August 2013 | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130814112252/http://korrespondent.net/business/companies/1579862-rossiya-zakazala-u-antonova-usovershenstvovannye-kukuruzniki | url-status=live }}</ref>

In 2014, following the [[Annexation of Crimea by the Russian Federation|annexation of the Crimea by Russia]], Ukraine cancelled contracts with Russia, leading to a significant income reduction in Ukraine's defense and aviation industries.<ref name=renamed_from_20160309_on_20220413133759>{{cite news |url=https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/mar/09/ukraine-needs-russia-nicolai-petro |title=Why Ukraine needs Russia more than ever |author=Nicolai Petro |newspaper=The Guardian |date=9 March 2016 |access-date=7 September 2016 |archive-date=21 September 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160921131939/https://www.theguardian.com/world/2016/mar/09/ukraine-needs-russia-nicolai-petro |url-status=live }}</ref> However Ukraine has been slowly recovering the deficit from breaking ties with Russia by entering new markets such as the [[Arab states of the Persian Gulf|Persian Gulf region]]<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.arabianaerospace.aero/new-saudi-ukrainian-aircraft-programme-launched.html|title=Arabian Aerospace – New Saudi-Ukrainian aircraft programme launched|website=www.arabianaerospace.aero|access-date=29 September 2018|archive-date=30 September 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180930040655/https://www.arabianaerospace.aero/new-saudi-ukrainian-aircraft-programme-launched.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.defenseworld.net/news/20458/Ukraine_Discusses_Cooperation_With_UAE_in_Guided_Weapons__UAVs|title=Ukraine Discusses Cooperation With UAE in Guided Weapons, UAVs|website=www.defenseworld.net|access-date=8 January 2021|archive-date=30 September 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180930081147/http://www.defenseworld.net/news/20458/Ukraine_Discusses_Cooperation_With_UAE_in_Guided_Weapons__UAVs|url-status=live}}</ref> and expanding its presence in old ones such as India.<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.unian.info/economics/10084925-ukraine-u-s-winning-indian-defense-market-over-russia-official.html|title=Ukraine, U.S. winning Indian defense market over Russia – official|website=www.unian.info|date=18 April 2018 |access-date=8 January 2021|archive-date=8 January 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210108234201/https://www.unian.info/economics/10084925-ukraine-u-s-winning-indian-defense-market-over-russia-official.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.janes.com/defence-news|title=Janes &#124; Latest defence and security news|website=Janes.com|access-date=8 January 2021|archive-date=12 September 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200912223916/https://www.janes.com/defence-news/|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.defenseworld.net/interview/106/Ukraine_to_Pitch_for_Repair__Components_Supply_of_USSR_Origin_Aircraft_in_India|title=Ukraine to Pitch for Repair, Components Supply of USSR Origin Aircraft in India |website= defenseworld.net|access-date=8 January 2021|archive-date=24 October 2020|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201024060136/https://www.defenseworld.net/interview/106/Ukraine_to_Pitch_for_Repair__Components_Supply_of_USSR_Origin_Aircraft_in_India|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.kyivpost.com/ukraine-politics/ukraine-preparing-for-boosting-defense-cooperation-with-africa-in-aircraft-repair-area.html|title=Ukraine preparing for boosting defense cooperation with Africa in aircraft repair area &#124; KyivPost – Ukraine's Global Voice|date=25 September 2018|website=KyivPost|access-date=29 September 2018|archive-date=8 January 2021|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20210108234200/https://www.kyivpost.com/ukraine-politics/ukraine-preparing-for-boosting-defense-cooperation-with-africa-in-aircraft-repair-area.html|url-status=live}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2018/07/27/turkey-ukraine-advance-an-188-co-production-talks/|archive-url=https://wayback.archive-it.org/all/20220414030258/https://www.defensenews.com/global/europe/2018/07/27/turkey%2Dukraine%2Dadvance%2Dan%2D188%2Dco%2Dproduction%2Dtalks/|url-status=dead|archive-date=14 April 2022|title=Turkey, Ukraine advance An-188 co-production talks|first=Burak Ege|last=Bekdil|date=27 July 2018|website=Defense News|access-date=29 September 2018}}</ref>

In July 2018, Antonov was able to secure a deal with Boeing to procure airplane parts which were no longer available due to breakdown of relations with Russia.<ref>{{Cite news|url=https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ukraine-boeing-antonov-idUSKBN1KH0OM|title=Ukraine plane maker turns West with Boeing tie-up|first=Pavel|last=Polityuk|newspaper=Reuters |date=27 July 2018|via=www.reuters.com|access-date=8 January 2021|archive-date=13 February 2019|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20190213124128/https://www.reuters.com/article/us-ukraine-boeing-antonov-idUSKBN1KH0OM|url-status=live}}</ref>

====Production facilities' consolidation====
During the [[History of the Soviet Union|Soviet period]], not all Antonov-designed [[aircraft]] were manufactured by the company itself. This was a result of Soviet industrial strategy that split military production between different regions of the [[Soviet Union]] to minimise potential war loss risks. As a result, Antonov aeroplanes were often assembled by the specialist [[contract manufacturer]]s.

In 2009, the once-independent "[[Aviant]]" aeroplane-assembling plant in [[Kyiv]] became part of Antonov, facilitating a full serial manufacturing cycle of the company. However, the old tradition of co-manufacturing with contractors is continued, both with Soviet-time partners and with new licensees like [[Iran]]'s [[Iran Aircraft Manufacturing Industrial Company]].<ref name="history">{{cite web|url=http://www.antonov.com/about/antonov-history?lang=en|title=ANTONOV history|website=www.antonov.com|access-date=29 June 2017|url-status=bot: unknown|archive-url=https://timetravel.mementoweb.org/memento/2011/http://www.antonov.com/about/antonov-history?lang=en|archive-date=27 February 2018}}</ref>

In 2014, Antonov produced and delivered only two [[An-158]] airplanes.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.aex.ru/news/2015/1/26/129591/|script-title=ru:ГП "Антонов" подвел итоги 2014 года: Только два новых самолета|access-date=29 June 2017|archive-date=28 July 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20170728205822/https://www.aex.ru/news/2015/1/26/129591/|url-status=live|language=ru}}</ref> This trend continued into 2015, producing one [[An-148]] and one [[An-158]].<ref name="radio.vesti-ukr.com">{{cite web|url=http://radio.vesti-ukr.com/interview/32217-andrej-haustov-poyavilsya-shans-chto-vtoraya-mriya-obretet-svoyu-zhizn-v-nebe-.html|script-title=ru:Андрей Хаустов: "Появился шанс, что вторая "Мрия" обретет свою жизнь в небе"|access-date=29 June 2017|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160912160747/http://radio.vesti-ukr.com/interview/32217-andrej-haustov-poyavilsya-shans-chto-vtoraya-mriya-obretet-svoyu-zhizn-v-nebe-.html|archive-date=12 September 2016|url-status=dead|language=ru}}</ref> Since 2016, no aircraft have been produced or delivered to clients.<ref>[https://cfts.org.ua/news/2020/04/22/zelenskiy_khochet_sozdat_gosaviakompaniyu_letayuschuyu_na_ukrainskikh_samoletakh_58415 Зеленский хочет создать госавиакомпанию, летающую на украинских самолетах — Центр транспортных стратегий<!-- The title was added by a bot -->]</ref>

==Aircraft==
Antonov's primary activity has generally been in developing large military [[transport aircraft]], including the world's largest airplanes, chiefly for the [[Russian Federation]] and its predecessor nations.<ref name="heavy">Guttman, Robert: [https://www.historynet.com/antonovs-heavy-hauler-hire/  "Antonov's Heavy Hauler for Hire,"] July 27, 2018, ''[[HistoryNet]],'' retrieved February 24, 2022</ref><ref name="new_mission">Borys, Christian: [https://www.bbc.com/future/article/20170503-the-worlds-biggest-plane-may-have-a-new-mission  "The world's biggest plane may have a new mission,"] May 4, 2017, ''[[BBC Future]],'' retrieved February 24, 2022</ref>

Additionally, Antonov has produced [[airliner]]s. It has also produced numerous variants of both transports and airliners, for operations ranging from [[air freight]] hauling to military [[reconnaissance]], command and control operations.<ref name="heavy" />

It has also developed various [[general aviation]] light aircraft, having originated as a producer of gliders.<ref name="heavy" />

===Transports, airliners and derivatives===
Antonov's aeroplanes (design office prefix ''An'') range from the rugged [[Antonov An-2|An-2]] [[biplane]] through the [[Antonov An-28|An-28]] reconnaissance aircraft to the massive [[Antonov An-124|An-124 Ruslan]] and [[Antonov An-225 Mriya|An-225 Mriya]] [[strategic airlift]]ers (the latter being the world's heaviest aircraft and was the only one in service).<ref name="heavy" />

The [[Antonov An-24|An-24]], [[Antonov An-26|An-26]], [[Antonov An-30|An-30]] and [[Antonov An-32|An-32]] family of twin [[turboprop]], high-winged, passenger-cargo-troop transport aircraft are important for domestic/short-haul air services particularly in parts of the world once led by communist governments. The [[Antonov An-72|An-72/An-74]] series of small jetliners is slowly replacing that fleet, and a larger [[Antonov An-70|An-70]] freighter is under certification.

The [[Antonov An-148]] is a new [[regional airliner]] of twin-turbofan configuration. Over 150 aircraft have been ordered since 2007. A stretched version is in development, the [[An-158]] (from 60–70 to 90–100 passengers).
