at the 1:07 mark there appears to be some sort of "super" AN-225 with what looks like 12 engines. Anyone know what plane this is?

Gotta be some sort of photoshop or animation. As far as I know, there has only been one AN225 built--with six engines--and it is still flying.
As an aside, it was announced this past week that the rights to the design has been sold to the Chinese who will finish the second example of the AN225 that has been in storage somewhere for many years, and then begin serial production of additional AN225s in China although it will probably get a new model number. From Wiki: "In August 2016, representatives from Ukraine's Antonov and Aerospace Industry Corporation of China, an import-export company operating out of Hong Kong,[19] signed an agreement to recommence production of the An-225, with China now planning to procure and fly the first model by 2019.[20][21]" |
