I think this myth will soon be debunked.

They are American faking as Russian. We all know western trick.

Really?? Lol. Ok if you say so.

it's the internet fool. Americans love trolling on RT comments. Even an indian boy like you can be white
@AndrewJin

Oh so now I'm Indian because I mentioned something about your Russian friends which your own Chinese brother pointed out ithe first place which you don't like huh??
I have noticed on here that when some of you people don't know what else to say you resort to name calling and telling someone where he should be from.

do you know who he is?
he has been working for China many years.
because he did not like capitalist UAS, and he likes socialist China

Ukraine now was complex and problematic country, they 'controlled' by US. Better China stay away from this, and keep focused all source into it own national air lifter project. IF all of this true, it just about someone need a big bucks.

Well, AN-225 is different than Y-20. They offer different package and technology. So what wrong with buying 25 of it? Y-20 is very complicated to make. We still don't know how big is the production capacity to build it. So what if they can only build a small number of this craft / year? That will bottleneck the PLA strategy / planning. Plus, AN-225 give a lot of benefit in the "making aircraft know how" for the Chinese aircraft engineering capability. And it give both Chinese military and industry another capability to transport heavy cargo. Hell, even a train can be transported by this giant.

Pride is a dangerous sin. When you are being consumed by it in large degree, you'll be blind, and your progress will be hindered. Luckily to Chinese people, that pride still not consume their government. So having the highly advanced Y-20 won't make them arrogant thus reject another fine technology that offered by this fine aircraft.

I can bet he involved in design of Y-20.

 

[wiseone2]

It will be more for commercial lifting rather than military. C-5 and An-124 are outdated dinosaur which US and Russia are doing away. They are too big and too heavy that dedicated and specific runway needed for them to land. How can they be strategic in terms of wartime?

An-225 is useful in peacetime of transporting large oversize commercial parts.

i agree
i see no military value with massive transport aircraft

Hey ... now I know what will become of the second An-225 in China !

lol, I wish.

CCTV4 just reported the deal. So it's official now.

But to what extent ? The sale of the second airframe, a cooperation, to establish a new, second production line (which I really doubt) ...??

But to what extent ? The sale of the second airframe, a cooperation, to establish a new, second production line (which I really doubt) ...??

Ukraine side have stated under this contract no TOT, no blue prints, only one aircraft to be completed in Ukraine.

 

[Deino]

To admit that was to expect. A serial production in China from a company without any experience in aeroplane maufacturing in a factory that is still not existant ... Sounded unrealistic right from The beginnings.

China is trying to expand its military reach with the biggest plane in the world
ALEX LOCKIE
SEP 9, 2016, 5:15 AM

The biggest cargo plane in the world, the An-225 Mriya.​

A recent deal between Beijing and Ukraine’s Antonov Company to restart production of the largest-ever cargo plane could potentially remedy the logistical woes of China’s People’s Liberation Army.

China’s military, still largely dependent on railroads for moving troops and heavy freight, could gain a lot from having the gigantic aircraft.

The plane, the AN-225 Mriya, holds 240 world records for its size and strength. It has six massive engines creating over 300,000 pounds of thrust, and the plane can reportedly carry a 200-ton load nearly 2,500 miles.

Such capability would be game-changing for the People’s Republic of China.

“It would provide China with the large and global lift that not even the US has possessed, except by rental,” wrote Peter Singer, an avid China watcher on Popular Science. “It’s large enough to carry helicopters, tanks, artillery, even other aircraft.”

For the most part, as Singer mentioned, China will rent the massive planes, but the agreement does allow for China to domestically build An-225s.

Additionally, the Center for Strategic and International Studies uncovered the fact that China has been developing large, military-grade runways, as well as military hardened hangars on it’s reclaimed islands in the South China Sea. Having massively improved freight dynamics in the region could greatly benefit China.

But the herculean plane lends itself to civil applications too. China could easily use it to move construction supplies, to offload its glut of steel, or to bring supplies to its several building projects as part of the “One Belt, One Road” initiative.

As Marcus Weisgerber at DefenseOne points out, the adoption of old, soviet-era technology from Ukraine is an instance of history repeating itself, as China’s sole aircraft carrier, the Liaoning, is also a refurbished Ukrainian hull.
