I read somewhere that Volga-Dnepr (a Russian commercial cargo company) was hired by NATO to transport their large equipment into Kuwait, Afghanistan and Iraq due to budget issues (using US planes would have been much more costly). That would certainly explain the presence of an AN-124 in Al Basrah - you can't beat better fuel economy and bigger cargo capacity combined with a lower price, especially in such costly campaigns as these have been.Hitperson wrote:hmm why is there a 124 on basarah??
