    The name of the worlds largest aircraft, the Antonov AN-225

    Built in Kyiv during the Soviet era, she was built to carry the Soviet space shuttle, Buran, but after the fall of the USSR she was used as a massive air transport.

    Her name, Mriya means “dream” or “inspiration”. She was a huge source of pride for Ukraine.

    She was destroyed by Russian forces on the ground at Antonov airport in Hostomel, northern Ukraine.
