1955 assault transport The AN-8 (NATO code-named `Camp`) is the twin-engined forerunner of the AN-10 and of the better known AN-12 (`Cub`). It remained elusive to the western world for a long time. It was designed for the armed forces as a rear-loading tactical transport and as an Aeroflot requirement for a 42-48 seat passenger/freighter.. The AN-8 first flew during late 1955 and there were probably some 100-200 examples produced. All the Aeroflot examples were ex military. It was long thought that the AN-8 had retired long ago, but a few crept out of the dark regions of the former Soviet Union.In the meantime, a small number of this large twin-engined turboprop aircraft turned out to be still flying. While at least one mining company based in Siberia still flyes the type within Russia, the An-8s latest hub is in the United Arab Emirates, where a number of both Russian and African operators seem to have found demand for the transport.
