Il-76, when it appeared, had a nickname - "hunchbacked." An-148, in this photo, from this angle, is still “hunchback”.

No matter how you call it - if only it flies properly! I want to wish new planes that the number of takeoffs always be equal to the number of landings.

He has long had a nickname who does not know:
"Donkey")))

The aircraft is equipped with two turbojet engines

Which and whose? For some reason, "modestly" missed.

[seti]

Unfortunately the contract is completed ..)))
And for engines: The aircraft is equipped with two double-circuit turbojet engines D-436-148 developed by ZMKB "Progress", manufactured by OJSC "Motor Sich" in conjunction with the Federal State Unitary Enterprise "Scientific and Production Center for Gas Turbine Construction" Salyut "".
Starting January 1 2018, production in Voronezh will be mothballed. Whether the production of An-148 will continue will depend on whether customers for this type of aircraft will be or not, the aircraft manufacturer explained.

Tin, can’t create your own plane? Fly on a Ukrainian plane? Shame!!! When will it stop? Give Putin Finally Powers !!! In a year or two, everything will be filled with airplanes.
Well, you understand, he was bound hand and foot all this time. How many projects have already been prepared under his patronage - Ila, Ana, Drying. If you do not give him authority, we will not get all of this. So we will grovel before the Ukrainians.

Give Putin Finally Powers !!!

Now what is he doing? What else do you need? In the gods to choose?

Don’t make a noise! The An-148 is as much a Ukrainian aircraft as Russian is a joint development, but it was built mainly in Voronezh, and the engines, if necessary, the resumption of production, can now be replaced by Russian ones.

[Berkut154]

The plane is good and comfortable. Alas, politics has made its mark in his life.

Engines, this is just the main thing. I can assemble a glider in my garage.

Yeah, bound in the Kremlin on the floor. And instead, the double boyars are shown. Meehan, stop shaming.

An-148 is a vivid example of how you can create and produce an airplane without any special state support. This is a stone in the Tu-334, the creators of which are all to blame, for all the time they couldn’t even make a two-membered crew, and the Antonovs and An-148s in various modifications and 158, however, the Tu-334, too, together with the Ukrainians should have been released, so it is possible that part of the money allocated for the Tu-334 went to an.

Nice plane. I had the pleasure of flying on it.
That's just strange - the airline "Russia" has six 148s, but their operation is stopped.
Aircraft is good. Even a dirt airfield can use.
