This relationship ended in June 2006. The same month Antonov Airlines and another large player in the global specialty air cargo business, Volga-Dnepr Airlines (Russia), established a joint venture company — Ruslan International — where each company has a 50% stake. The joint operation of the Ukrainian and Russian fleets allow to maximize the utilization of the combined An-124-100 commercial fleet (seven freighters belong to Antonov Airlines and ten are owned by Volga-Dnepr Airlines and the only one in use Antonov An-225 — the largest cargo aircraft in the world.
