Those were all built in the Soviet era no? 2 MiG-29 and 2 Su-27 were all they could salvage. Hmm, that's pretty bad Su-35S can shoot them down in like a minute. These are obsolete planes.

Antonov is like bankrupt basically. Antonov by the way was a Russian and Antonov was established in Russia and later moved to Ukraine. Fortunately, Sukhoi, Mikoyan, Ilyushin, Tupolev, Mil, Kamov are all in Russia.

Antonov is like bankrupt basically. Antonov by the way was a Russian and Antonov was established in Russia and later moved to Ukraine. Fortunately, Sukhoi, Mikoyan, Ilyushin, Tupolev, Mil, Kamov are all in Russia.

The company was established in 1946 in Novosibirsk as a top-secret Soviet Research and Design Bureau. In 1952, the Bureau was relocated to Kiev, a city with rich aviation history where aircraft-manufacturing infrastructure was being restored after the WW2 destruction. Antonov's personal history is irrelevant to the company location. Antonov worked as designer with Yakovlev. Most Antonov aircraft date from after 1952 (all but 4).

A-40 Krylaty Tank 2 September 1942 Winged tank
An-2 Kukuruznik Colt 31 August 1947 multi-purpose, biplane, single-engine utility transport.
An-4 Colt 31 July 1951 float-equipped An-2
An-6 Meteo Colt 21 March 1948

During the Soviet period, not all Antonov-designed aircraft were manufactured by the company itself.Antonov aeroplanes are often assembled by the specialist contract manufacturers. Current contract and licensee manufacturers

• Kharkiv State Aviation Manufacturing Enterprise – Kharkiv, Ukraine
• Tashkent Aviation Production Association (formerly Tashkent State Aviation Plant) – Tashkent, Uzbekist
• Iran Aircraft Manufacturing Industrial Company (HESA) – Shahin Shahr, Iran
• Voronezh Aircraft Production Association (VASO) – Voronezh, Russia

An-70 is dead, no? Russia was the biggest financier and technology provider. But now that all out of the window.

Each of the multitude of bureaus and factories producing Sukhoi components was privatized independently. In 1996, the government re-gathered the major part of them forming Sukhoi Aviation Military Industrial Combine (Sukhoi AIMC). In parallel, other entities, including Ulan Ude factory, Tbilisi factory, Belarus and Ukraine factories, established alternate transnational Sukhoi Attack Aircraft (producing e.g. Su-25 TM).

The Sukhoi AIMC comprises the JSC Sukhoi Design Bureau located in Moscow, the Novosibirsk Aviation Production Association (NAPO), the Komsomolsk-on-Amur Aircraft Production Association (KnAAPO) and Irkutsk Aviation. Sukhoi is headquartered in Moscow. Finmeccanica owns 25% + 1 share of Sukhoi's civil division. In 2006, the Russian government merged Sukhoi with Mikoyan, Ilyushin, Irkut, Tupolev, and Yakovlev as a new company named United Aircraft Corporation. Mikoyan and Sukhoi were placed within the same operating unit.
