Ukrainian headquartered Antonov Airlines managed to safely transport medical supplies at short notice from Germany to Namibia, South Africa on the world’s largest aircraft, the AN-225 “Mriya”, as part of the fight against Covid-19.

The mission was executed under the Strategic Airlift International Solution (SALIS) programme.The AN-225 which has recently returned to commercial operation, took off from its home base at Kyiv-Antonov, Ukraine and flew to Liepzig-Halle airport, Germany to load the cargo destined for Windhoek, Namibia with one refuelling and rest stop in Accra, Ghana.

AN-225 is said to have the biggest aircraft cargo cabin and is the best option to accommodate the greatest volume of humanitarian cargoes.
