Antonov An-10

<h2 id="design-and-development">Design and development</h2>

Development of a four-engined airliner intended for use on routes from 500 to 2,000 kilometers (310 to 1,240 miles) began at the end of 1955. Inspired by the Izdeliye N (Izdeliye – article or product) passenger version of the <a href="/facts/Antonov_An-8/9Ut74cP2">Antonov An-8</a>, the Antonov design bureau developed the Izdeliye U ("U" for "Universal"), a four-engined aircraft with a similar layout to the An-8, but with increased dimensions and a circular-section pressurised fuselage.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:2" href="#fn:2">2</a> Early in the design process the choice of engines was between the <a href="/facts/Kuznetsov_NK-4/KjvVkh0C">Kuznetsov NK-4</a> and the <a href="/facts/Ivchenko_AI-20/qeL5KFnx">Ivchenko AI-20</a>, and despite superior performance the Kuznetsov NK-4 was eliminated and the Ivchenko AI-20 selected, partly due to the Central Committee of the Communist Party of Ukraine, which wanted as many as possible produced in Ukraine, where the Ivchenko factory was.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:3" href="#fn:3">3</a>
The first prototype flew on 7 March 1957, revealing poor directional stability which led to a taller vertical fin, and later to hexagonal auxiliary fins at the tips of the tailplane. Entering production at Zavod (factory) No.64, <a href="/facts/Voronezh/QUmUlPSI">Voronezh</a> in 1957, the initial three aircraft were delivered with Kuznetsov NK-4 engines, due to non-availability of the Ivchenko AI-20 engines. From 1958, production aircraft were delivered with the Ivchenko AI-20A engines which boasted a longer service life and performance comparable to the Kuznetsov engines.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:4" href="#fn:4">4</a> The new aircraft was displayed to the public for the first time in July 1957; the design was approved for mass production after testing was completed in June 1959.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:5" href="#fn:5">5</a> <a href="/facts/Aeroflot/G1Kjn1lz">Aeroflot</a> began operations with the An-10 from 22 July 1959 on the Moscow – <a href="/facts/Simferopol_International_Airport/0t4C460k">Simferopol</a> route.
Configured with 85 seats, the cabin was spacious and well-appointed with comfortable seats widely spaced, giving plenty of legroom, but due to the low cabin floor and wide diameter, there was much unusable space which limited baggage and cargo volume. The inefficient use of cabin volume contributed greatly to the low payload/TOW ratio which was much lower than that of the contemporary <a href="/facts/Ilyushin_Il-18/cuIpwbVj">Ilyushin Il-18</a>, but which was still higher than the <a href="/facts/Tupolev_Tu-104/jDjnxHUg">Tupolev Tu-104</a>. A later production version, the An-10A, addressed some of the efficiency concerns by increasing the number of seats from 85 to 89 and 100 (in the two versions of the An-10A), then to 117–118 and finally 132 through reducing seat pitch and changing the cabin layout.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:6" href="#fn:6">6</a> Powered by Ivchenko AI-20K engines the An-10A demonstrated superior performance and an increased maximum payload of 14.5 Tonnes (31,970 lb). The auxiliary endplate fins eventually gave way to improved splayed ventral fins under the rear fuselage. The directional stability was better and the new ventral fins also improved longitudinal stability at high g and on landing approach, as well as delaying the onset of Mach buffet to M0.702. Due to being placed in an area of flow separation, the new ventral fins caused unpleasant vibrations. Following results of flight tests and at least two fatal crashes, an effective tailplane deicing system was retrofitted to all remaining aircraft.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:7" href="#fn:7">7</a>

<h2 id="operational-history">Operational history</h2>

A total of 104 aircraft were built, including the prototype and static test airframes, entering service with the Ukrainian Civil Aviation Directorate of <a href="/facts/Aeroflot/G1Kjn1lz">Aeroflot</a> from 27 April 1959,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:8" href="#fn:8">8</a> proving popular due to large cargo volume (when fitted with reduced seating) and excellent field performance, making the aircraft suitable for use on small undeveloped airfields. The Antonov Bureau simultaneously developed and produced the <a href="/facts/Antonov_An-8/9Ut74cP2">Antonov An-8</a> medium military transport, the An-10 civil airliner and military paratroop transport, as well as the <a href="/facts/Antonov_An-12/HRwwKxfE">Antonov An-12</a> military cargo transport.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:9" href="#fn:9">9</a>
On 16 November 1959 CCCP-11167 crashed on final approach near <a href="/facts/Lviv_Danylo_Halytskyi_International_Airport/snEY41RR">Lviv</a> due to icing.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:10" href="#fn:10">10</a>
On 22 April 1962 an An-10A piloted by A. Mitronin achieved a world record 500 km closed loop speed record averaging 730.6 kilometres per hour (454.0 mph).<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:11" href="#fn:11">11</a>
On 26 February 1960, at Lviv Danylo Halytskyi International Airport, CCCP-11180 crashed due to reduced longitudinal stability and control authority caused by icing of the tailplane.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:12" href="#fn:12">12</a>
Military use of the An-10 was fairly extensive with 45 An-10TS built for the VTA, 16 flown exclusively by military units and the remaining 38 loaned to the Ministry of Civil Aviation, as well as the flyable aircraft remaining after withdrawal from Aeroflot service.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:13" href="#fn:13">13</a>
On 18 May 1972, while descending to <a href="/facts/Kharkiv_International_Airport/HwJQPVqj">Kharkiv International Airport</a> an An-10 <a href="/facts/Aeroflot_Flight_1491/FIvN8Bad">crashed</a>, killing eight crew and 113 passengers. An investigation revealed <a href="/facts/Metal_fatigue/zmJY8hMt">fatigue cracking</a> of the wing centre section stringers on many of the remaining aircraft. Following this accident, Aeroflot ceased operating the An-10.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:14" href="#fn:14">14</a>
After withdrawal from Aeroflot service on 27 August 1972, 25 An-10A aircraft which were in good condition were transferred to the VVS (<a href="/facts/Soviet_Air_Force/9UwGvVhU">Soviet Air Force</a>) and other MAP (Ministry of Aircraft Production) units,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:15" href="#fn:15">15</a> until retired by 1974. The type's very last flight was completed by 1983. 
A few examples have been preserved as exhibits in museums, and several have been converted into children's theatres (at Kyiv, Samara and Novocherkassk).

<h2 id="accidents-and-incidents">Accidents and incidents</h2>
Over its life, the An-10 experienced 15 accidents,<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:22" href="#fn:22">22</a> with 373 fatalities. The An-10 carried more than 35 million passengers and 1.2 million tons of cargo.

<ul><li>On 29 April 1958, an An-10 (CCCP-Л7256) of MAP Voronezh AZ crashed at Pridacha Airport during a test flight following double engine failure, killing one of five crew. Shortly after takeoff, engine number one overheated and failed due to prolonged operation in takeoff mode; the engine control system reduced power to engine number four to avoid asymmetric thrust. Engine number three later overheated and failed and power was reduced to engine number two. With only two engines, the aircraft could not maintain altitude and the crew decided to make a gear-down forced landing in a field, but the aircraft crashed during the attempt.<a class="footnote-ref" id="fnref:23" href="#fn:23">23</a></li>
<li>On 16 November 1959, <a href="/facts/Aeroflot_Flight_315_(1959)/FvIIDAXL">Aeroflot Flight 315</a>, an An-10 (CCCP-11167), entered a nosedive and crashed near Snilow Airport due to tail icing, killing all 40 on board.
