Although old, the AN-74 is a pretty nice-looking and unique aircraft (along with its sibling, the AN-72). I feel that this would be a nice change of pace for IF, as it could certainly use more military and cargo jets. o7

It’s very funny looking.
Someone call the engineers because I don’t think those engines were placed correctly.
This just does not look right…
It looks bad and funny and good at the same time.
add Air Koryo AN-74!
I’m mostly sure that they create a STOL effect through their exhaust. This is the reason for their placement.
They are placed perfectly fine. This aircraft was designed to work off unimproved fields, such as gravel and dirt. Therefore, the engines are placed high up on the eing tk minimize the amount of FOD ingested into the engine on take off. I personally love the look of these planes
Not my favorite those engines look so word as if the are upside down
With that in mind the engineering is quite creative.
