Well its an AN-72 ( the 70 and 74 looks basically the same as well ), a beautiful Ukrainian plane that nowdays gets used throught europe ( though still quite rare in western europe ) mostly for cargo.

A net picture of the an-72

Umm....the An-70 is a quite different aircraft...

[foo_fighter]

Doc is right

Antonov An-70 is similar to C-130 Herc, a lil bigger I must say, double props in each turboprop powerful engines and same kind of cargo doors

The Antonov An-72/74 are the same actually, the sizes are diferent.

cya!

But , where do you find this fella??
