Ukraine ordered 2 units. However, a joint Ukrainian-Russian intellectual development and to export it can not be sold.

Really? They invade your country and you still want to respect IP rights?

Or is it because of the Ruski parts in it? Can't they be reverse engineered?
BTW Why is Antonov proposing a turbofan An 70? I thought propfan is better.

I don't know all the legal intricacies. Propellers to the D-27 is collected in Russia. The engines D-436 are going in Ukraine. In addition, the load capacity is increased by 7 tons.

the load capacity is increased by 7 tons.

You mean reduced.

Antonov has signed a contract on delivery of the aircraft An-178 for Iraq.

Now Ukraine is developing An-124-121 and An-140T. Saudi Arabia built the plant, which will produce An-132 (An-32 but with a more powerful canadian engines). An-124-121 will receive new avionics and new engines, the An-140T is created as a replacement for the An-26.

On the basis of the An-140, Iran builds its transport aircraft Faraz-140T.

Ukraine Considering Selling Licenses For Production Of Antonov Aircraft To China
03 September 2015 10:42

The management of the Kharkov State Aircraft Manufacturing Enterprise has reached an agreement with China on supply of 10 aircraft, a source in the Kharkov regional administration has told the Depo.Kharkov publication.

According to the source, the possibility of selling licenses for production of Antonov aircraft to China is currently being considered, but "it is very difficult franchising."

"Manufacturing airplanes is not like baking a cake. It is necessary to establish a full production cycle in addition to a license, but this is not beneficial to Ukraine. The Soviet Union had such experience, when Soviet engineers opened aircraft factories in Pakistan and India. Today, these countries are our competitors on the aircraft manufacturing market," the source said.

The source stressed that the issue of signing an agreement with Kazakhstan on production of aircraft at the Kharkov aircraft factory for the Kazakh Ministry of Internal Affairs is also being discussed currently. However, the talks are “at an impasse” because of the large-scale devaluation of the Kazakh currency, which has depreciated by almost 40%. The source stressed that the Kharkov aircraft factory has already manufactured one airplane for Kazakhstan.

The Antonov state aircraft manufacturing enterprise has reached agreement on cooperation with the WB Electronics company (Poland), which will help the Ukrainian enterprise to develop tactical unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) for the Ukrainian Armed Forces. The relevant memorandum was signed during the "Weapons and Security" exhibition on 22 September, the press service of Antonov announced.

"The basis for implementation of this project will be the experience of Antonov in design, manufacture, and operational support for aviation equipment of various classes and purposes, combined with high-tech equipment manufactured by WB Electronics," the press service said.

WB Electronics is part of the WB Group, the largest private holding company in Poland, which specializes in defense technologies. The group produces various electronic components for military needs, computer systems, as well as drones.

After seeing the posts in this thread, I have a humble recommendation for the Kiev regime.

Get out of aircraft making business and start making toys.

Your caustic comment resembles the squeak of a mosquito. The Corporation works and collaborates with others,while you spit venom.
