Historical Background
The Antonov An-225 “Mriya”, a product of 1980s Soviet design, holds the record as the heaviest aircraft ever built. Originally conceived to carry the Buran space shuttle, it boasts six turbofan engines, an immense fuselage, and an extensive internal cargo volume unmatched by any other plane. Despite only one airworthy unit produced, the An-225 evolved into a commercial workhorse, transporting outsized freight across the globe, from power plant components to massive construction machinery. Its interior design, though utilitarian, is impressively cavernous and practical, speaking to the aircraft’s extraordinary engineering prowess and the logistical possibilities it affords. By installing these color photo-etched interior parts in your Zvezda An-225 kit, you underscore the Mriya’s remarkable capacity and structural complexity, paying homage to one of aviation’s most ambitious undertakings.

- Bend or shape components according to the color instructions, ensuring precise alignment.
