This 5 Planes Are Bigger Than Yachts
This 5 Planes Are Bigger Than Yachts 1. Boeing 747 Dreamlifter In the 2000s Boeing found that it needed a cargo plane with an enormous amount of storage to transport components for the 787 Dreamliner, which has parts made all over the world. The solution was to take its biggest plane, the 747, and build a custom cargo hold around it. 2. Antonov An-124 Ruslan Another monster designed and built by the Antonov Design Bureau in the USSR, the An-124 Ruslan, operated by the Russian Air Force, is the largest military aircraft in the world. For almost 30 years after its introduction in 1984, the An-124 was the largest and heaviest cargo aircraft in the world other than the single An-225. 3. Boeing B-52 The B-52 entered service in 1955, and the first B-52H, the currently serving model, was introduced in 1961. B-52 bomber is the grandfather of the air force, aging but still capable of delivering a serious punch. 4. Airbus Beluga The Airbus A300-600 Super Transporter, commonly called the Beluga, was designed specifically to transport large and awkward aircraft parts, similar to the Dreamlifter. Entering service in 1995, the aircraft largely replaced the Super Guppy, serving European needs for large air cargo. 5. Stratolaunch (strato loouncs) Paul Allen's Stratolaunch has yet to fly, so we cannot say it dominates the skies just yet, but it certainly is a monster plane. The six-engine, twin-fuselage aircraft designed and built by Scaled Composites has the longest wingspan in the world, 385 feet from tip to tip. If you placed Stratolaunch on a football field, the wings would extend through the goalposts an extra 12.5 feet on both sides.
