First flown in 1959, the An-24 was produced in some 1,000 units of various versions; in 2023 there are 93 still in service worldwide, mostly in theCommonwealth of Independent Statesand Africa.[2]

It was designed to replace the veteran pistonIlyushin Il-14transport on short to medium haul trips, optimised for operating from rough strips and unprepared airports in remote locations.[3]The high-wing layout protects engines and blades from debris, thepower-to-weight ratiois higher than that of many comparable aircraft and the machine is rugged, requiring minimal ground support equipment.

Due to its rugged airframe and good performance, the An-24 was adapted to perform many secondary missions such as ice reconnaissance and engine/propeller test-bed, as well as further development to produce the An-26 tactical transport, An-30 photo-mapping/survey aircraft and An-32 tactical transport with more powerful engines. Various projects were envisaged such as a four jet short/medium haul airliner and various iterations of powerplant.

The main production line was at theKyiv-Svyatoshino(later renamed "Aviant") aircraft production plant which built 985, with 180 built atUlan Udeand a further 197 An-24T tactical transport/freighters atIrkutsk.Production in the USSR was shut down by 1978.

Production continues at China'sXi'an Aircraft Industrial Corporationwhich makes licensed, reverse-engineered and redesigned aircraft as theXian Y-7,and its derivatives. Manufacture of the Y-7, in civil form, has now been supplanted by theMA60derivative with western engines and avionics, to improve performance and economy, and widen the export appeal.

The aircraft introduced in Mongolia was initially planned to be used by the air force, but was eventually handed over to a private airline company for use, and some were later used in research facilities. Since then, as the aircraft has deteriorated, it has been stored in Ulaanbaatar.[4]

An-24B
The second 50-seat airliner version with one extra window each side, single-slotted flaps replacing the double-slotted flaps and extended chord of the centre-section to compensate for the lower performance flaps. Some aircraft were delivered with four extra fuel bladders in the wing centre-section.[10]
An-24D
A projected long-range airliner version of the An-24B with a single RU-19 booster jet engine in the starboard nacelle, stretched fuselage with seating for 60, strengthened structure and increased fuel capacity.[11]
An-24LL (Letyushchaya Laboratoriya– flying laboratory)
The generic suffix LL can be applied to any test-bed, but in the An-24's case seems to refer to a single aircraft equipped formetrology(science of measurement), to be used for checking the airworthiness of production aircraft.[8]
An-24LP (LesoPozharnyy– forest fire fighter)
Three An-24RV aircraft converted into fire bombers/cloud seeders by installing a tank in the cabin, optical smoke and flame detectors, provision for a thermal imager, racks for carrying flare dispensers and the ability to carry firefighters for para-dropping.[12]
An-24LR 'Toros' (Ice Hummock)(Ledovyy Razvedchik– ice reconnaissance)
At least two An-24Bs converted to carry the 'Toros' SLAR (sideways looking airborne radar) either side of the lower fuselage, for ice reconnaissance, guiding icebreakers, convoys and other shipping.[13][note 1]
An-24LR 'Nit' (Thread)
One An-24B was converted to with 'Nit' SLAR in large pods along the lower fuselage sides.[14]
An-24PRT (Poiskovo-spasahtel'nyy Reaktivnyy [Uskoritel'] Transportnyy– SAR boosted transport)

Four aircraft converted as Nuclear, biological and chemical warfare reconnaissance versions of the An-24B, carrying RR8311-100 air sampling pods low on the forward fuselage and a sensor pod on a pylon on the port fuselage side.[17]
An-24RT (Reaktivnyy [Uskoritel'] Transportnyy– boosted transport)
Similar to the AN-24T, fitted with an auxiliary turbojet engine.[18]
An-24RT (Retranslyator– relay installation)

An-24RV ofPLAAFat China Aviation Museum, Beijing
SAT Airlines' Antonov An-24RV
An-24RV (Reaktivnyy [Uskoritel'] V– boosted V)

An-24T 'Troyanda' (Ukrainian – rose)
From the 1960s the Soviet Union was faced with nuclear submarine threats that were virtually undetectable with the technology available. To assist in the development of advanced optical, chemical, sonic, infra-red and electromagnetic detection systems, several aircraft were built or modified as test-beds. One significant aircraft was the An-24T 'Troyanda' which was built new, for the development of sonobuoy and infra-red detection systems. As well as equipment inside the cabin, sensors could be mounted in large teardrop fairings either side of the lower forward fuselage, and extra equipment could be carried in extended wing centre-section fairings.[8]

Civil operators

edit

As of July 2018, 86 An-24s were in airline service.[35]

Following fatal incidents in July 2011 Russian President (now Prime Minister)Dmitry Medvedevproposed the accelerated decommissioning of An-24s,[36]which resulted in a ban for this type from scheduled flights insideRussia.[37]However, later the ban was cancelled and, as of 2023, An-24 are still in limited commercial service in Russia.
