An AN-72 aircraft has been delivered to the Verkhnyaya Pyshma museum complex and is slated to be available for viewing in the fall. The aircraft arrived from the Aviakor plant in Samara.

The museum complex confirmed the arrival of the aircraft, stating that assembly is tentatively scheduled for the end of the summer. Parts of the plane were transported via trucks with Sverdlovsk license plates, as observed on the highway near Izhevsk.

The museum’s collection continues to expand, with the Buran spacecraft added last summer and a KAMAZ truck that participated in the Silk Road rally joining the exhibits in April.
