Antonov An-24

<p>The Antonov An-24  (<a href="/facts/NATO_reporting_name/GL1ptqxy">NATO reporting name</a>: Coke) is a 44-seat twin <a href="/facts/Turboprop/t7c8rkCx">turboprop</a> transport/passenger aircraft designed in 1957 in the <a href="/facts/Soviet_Union/m7wWsPto">Soviet Union</a> by the <a href="/facts/Antonov/AAC4wqrH">Antonov Design Bureau</a> and manufactured by the Kyiv, Irkutsk and Ulan-Ude Aviation Factories. It was the first of a future family of turboprops by Antonov. The <a href="/facts/An-30/CMnfzb6l">An-30</a> came next with a cartographic configuration, then the <a href="/facts/An-26/PsgGKksp">An-26</a> with a military configuration and the <a href="/facts/An-32/bCGyJDRu">An-32</a> modernized version. The <a href="/facts/An-132/EImC9MK1">An-132</a> was intended to be the next member of the An-24 family, but Saudi Arabia's Taqnia left the project and canceled their orders and the only prototype was destroyed, which led to the project being canceled. A Chinese licensed-built version, the <a href="/facts/Xi%27an_Y-7/2jadc1mn">Xi'an Y-7</a>, is heavily based on the An-24, but is not a member of the family.
