SPECIALIZED AERIAL SURVEY AIRPLANE
First flight 1967The AN-30 specialized aerial survey airplane is designed on the basis of the AN-24 airplane. Five camera hatches with sealed glazed windows, a separate navigator’s compartment with a wide field of view in the front hemisphere ensure the effectiveness of airplane use for aerial survey operations. A wide range of photographic altitudes and a variety of installed aerial cameras enable to take pictures for topographic maps on a scale from 1:3000 to 1:200000. With the special equipment installed, the AN-30 is used for mineral prospecting, ice patrol, and survey of fish schools. The AN-30 was serially manufactured at the Kyiv Aviation Plant, where 124 airplanes were built between 1973 and 1979.
