Had this come up on my Google Photos that I had taken it today back in 2016.

2nd largest cargo plane out there. I wish I could have seen the 225 in person too:

I believe that was one of the first victims in Ukraine. What a shame.

If you're talking about the 225, yes it was. This is the smaller version of that plane. There are still upwards of 20 of these left.

Here's a comparison:

The few pics I saw of the "destroyed 225" looked a lot like the earlier video docs I saw of the second 225, which was never completed. So, I've (since the news of it's destruction) have often wondered if the operational 225 is stashed somewhere, and the pics of the blown up/burned 225 were actually the second one.
