Ukraine hopes to attract $500 million of investment from China to complete an updated version of the world's biggest aircraft, the Antonov-225 Mriya, the president of manufacturer Antonov said on Sept. 7.
The Antonov-225 is a cargo plane designed as part of the former Soviet Union’s space programme. The only one completed is still in use and can carry up to 250 tonnes up to 4,000 km (2,485 miles).
