Jane's All The World's Aircraft, released today, said that the Soviet Union was developing the world's largest jet airplane, the Antonov 400, the Washington Post reported. Jane's said that the plane had the ability to transport SS20 nuclear missiles and that new supersonic Soviet fighters carried advanced electronics and weapons that enable them to shoot down cruise missiles and engage Western fighter jets on an equal footing. Jane's also said that the AN400, known as the Condor, was specifically designed for the rapid deployment of SS20s, tanks, and other heavy equipment and that it was about 5% larger than the U.S. C5A Galaxy.
