Worlds Biggest Plane AN-225 is one of a kind, it was built by Soviets to mainly airlift Buran Space Shuttle. But was barley used before soviet union came to its end shortly after its construction.
It is now used as a rental cargo transporter around the world.

The 2nd Antonov is 70% complete but lack of funding brought the project to a halt.
It's believed that another $400 million is needed to finish the plane, unfortunately it cant justify the cost.
