Model Variants for buyers to consider when purchasing an Antonov AN-30
Buyers may see several recognised AN-30 variants when researching listings. The An-30A is generally associated with civil operators and mapping roles, while the An-30B is linked to military service and may differ in avionics fit depending on the aircraft’s history. Some aircraft appear as the An-30M, which is associated with weather related missions in certain fleets, and a small number of airframes were converted into longer range An-30D configurations. Because equipment and certification can differ by operator and upgrade path, buyers should confirm the exact variant designation on the aircraft documents and match it to the current mission configuration.
