Antonov AN-26 Derived from the AN-24 passenger transport, the AN-26 (Curl) was developed in the late 1960s. The type entered civilian service with Aeroflot in 1970. Approximately 1,410 were built, many for military use. The type was also a major export success and remains in service around the world. The AN-26 has a unique feature, a rear loading ramp which can be rolled forward under the fuselage to allow for vehicles to reserve up to the cargo bay. The AN-26 has an Auxiliary Power Unit (APU) fixed to the starboard engine nacelle that serves as a turbojet booster on take-off.
