  1. About Antonov is more complicated. It is Russian company (branch from Yakovlev), during Soviet times it was moved from Siberia to Ukraine to increase industrial level of that territories. After dissolve of USSR, company de facto died, most of engineers returned back to Russia, so it mainly tried to finish soviet projects (but even failed to finish almost ready second AN-225, largest in world aircraft) and repaired old aircrafts. It continued until last rare soviet engineers not became too old and just gone. The company hasn't produced any plane in almost 10 years. P.S. About damaged (destroyed) facility. Several years ago Ukraine declared decommunization program (renamed thousands cities and streets, remove monuments, burn books and so on), so now in Russia exist joke: “we help to you with decommunization, everything what built communists, will be destroyed”.
