Aircrafts of An-74T family are designed for machinery and cargo transportation, including containers and pallets, with maximum payload 10 tons.
Operational features:
An-74T was constructed on the basis of An-72 aircraft (military transport short take-off and landing aircraft). It can operate regularly at unprepared airfields with unreliable runway surface in continuous autonomous mode. Built-in systems of modern flight and navigation and radio communication equipment allow the operation of flights at both prepared airways and off-the-airway roots.
Highly mechanized wing and perfect stability and maneuverability make it possible to operate flights with high-angle trajectory take-off and landing. Airtight crew cabin and air-conditioning system ensure properconditions for transportation of troops and perishable food. Cargo compartment size, tail hatch with lift frame and built-in loading facilities ensure autonomous loading and unloading of various cargos, as well as para-droping them if necessary.
