On December 9, the world’s final operational Antonov An-22—registration RF-08832—crashed while attempting to return for an emergency landing, killing all 7 on board. This aircraft was the last flying example of the world’s largest turboprop transport and had been in service for roughly half a century. In this video, we take a clear and respectful look at what is known so far: the sequence of events, reported technical issues, and why such an aging airframe was still operating in frontline military logistics.As recovery efforts continue, early evidence suggests a serious technical malfunction—possibly engine-related—leading to the crew’s decision to turn back. But with the An-22 fleet already retired everywhere else, questions are being raised: Was continued operation safe? Did maintenance challenges and spare-part scarcity finally outpace the aircraft’s legendary design?This is not a final accident report. It’s an early analysis based on confirmed facts, verified statements, and what experts expect investigators to focus on moving forward.
