The Antonov An-225 sits on the flightline at Camp Bastion, Afghanistan, March 7, and waits to be unloaded. The aircraft, which is the world’s largest fixed-wing aircraft, delivered supplies to the troops aboard Camp Bastion and Camp Leatherneck, Afghanistan. The six jet engines on this aircraft provide enough power to propel the 628,315 pounds of weight when empty and the 1,323,000 pounds when fully loaded.
