The total usable fuel capacity can be increased to 10,640 US gallons by install-
ing up to six auxiliary fuel tanks.
The aircraft is fitted with full authority digital engine control (FADEC).
FADEC increases engine life and lowers costs through providing fuel control thrust
setting computation, engine limit protection, automatic start sequencing and monitor-
ing, thrust reverse control and feedback, flight deck indications and engine health
monitoring.

ANTONOV AN-124-100 LONG-RANGE HEAVY TRANSPORT AIRCRAFT,
RUSSIA
The An-124 Ruslan, designed by the Antonov ASTC in Kiev, Ukraine, is a
very large cargo aircraft with a payload capacity of up to 150t. It is manufactured by
Aviant State Aviation Plant, Kiev, and Aviastar, Ulyanovsk, Russia. The aircraft is
designed for long-range delivery and air dropping of heavy and large size cargo, in-
cluding machines, equipment and troops. The aircraft is based on the An-124 Ruslan
military transport in service in the Russian Army, which has the NATO reporting
name Condor.
The An-124 entered service in 1986 and over 55 aircraft have been built. The
An-124-100 received Type Certification in 1992. Volga-Dnepr Airlines of Russia has
nine An-124 aircraft and one on order from Aviastar, which is scheduled to be deliv-
ered in by the end of 2004. This and another aircraft for Polet are being assembled
from parts in stock. Aviant State Aviation Plant in Kiev has completed an An-124-
100 which is being sold to the United Arab Emirates. This is also from parts in stock.
Eight An-124-100 aircraft are operated by Antonov Airlines, based at London Stan-
sted Airport, in partnership with Air Foyle HeavyLift.
A new version, the An-124-100M, has been developed by Aviastar. The air-
craft payload has been increased from 120t to 150t, the take-off weight increased
from 392t to 420t and the flight range with 120t cargo increased from 4,750km to
6,500km. The crew has been reduced to four. A digital antiskid

braking system has
been fitted with monographite wheel brake disks. The aircraft will have a new avion-
ics suite supplied by Honeywell of the USA and Aviapribor and Leninets of Russia.
In September 2004, the governments of Russia and the Ukraine announced that
series production of the An-124 would be restarted. Up to 80 An-124-100M upgraded
aircraft are to be jointly manufactured by Aviastar and Aviant between 2006 and
2020.
