The An-22 Antei is a Soviet heavy turboprop military transport aircraft created in the Antonov Design Bureau in the 1960s.

Created to provide transportation of heavy and oversized cargo, as well as airborne operations, the An-22 became an outstanding machine for its time. To this day, it is considered the largest turboprop aircraft in the world.

A total of 69 aircraft of this model were manufactured, which were actively used in the USSR Air Force. By 2021, most of the fleet has been decommissioned, however, several units are still in service in the Russian Aerospace Forces and Antonov Airlines.
