AN-124-100/150
The An-124-100 is the worlds largest, mass produced, civil cargo aircraft and is a recognized leader of the air cargo industry for its ability to transport oversized and super-heavy shipments.
The combination of exceptional characteristics such as its cargo compartment size, flight range and uplift capability (without the need for special loading equipment) allows the An-124 to carry super-heavy and oversized cargoes including equipment up to 120 tonnes (An-124-100) and up to 150 tonnes (An-124-150).

LOADING EQUIPMENT
Internal Crane System consists of two gantries each with two lifting hooks. Capable of lifting single items of up to 20,000 kg. The containers must have suitable lifting points. The SPG system can be fitted to increase lifting capacity up to 30,000 kg but has further restrictions relating to the centre of gravity of the container and location of lifting points.
Double-deck loading and transport system designed and patented by Volga-Dnepr allows the An-124-100 to transport up to 35 cars (average sedan) on a single flight; loading does not require any additional equipment; alternatively, cars can be driven or winched through the nose
Bearings for elements of the front aircraft ramp or, to put it simply, under the front ramp of the An-124
Extension ramps of various types of cargo
Tracking systems (similar to railway tracks): 2 versions: low-profile and standard-profile
Skate beams and roller beams
