The AN-32 multipurpose transport airplane was developed under order of the Indian Air Force on the basis of the AN-26 aircraft and differs from the latter in more powerful engines, enhanced wing high-lift devices and roller track equipment installed in the airplane. The AN-32 can be operated at high-altitude airfields (up to 4500 m above sea level) and in a hot climate. The airplane was serially manufactured at the Kyiv Aviation Plant from 1982 to 1996 (358 airplanes).
