Yes, the Antonov An-225 Mriya was significantly bigger than the Airbus A380 in almost every measurable way, though the two aircraft were designed for completely different purposes. The An-225 was a specialized "super-heavy" cargo transport, whereas the A380 is a double-decker passenger jetliner. In terms of dimensions, the An-225 had a wingspan of 88.4 meters and a length of 84 meters, compared to the A380's wingspan of 79.75 meters and length of 72.7 meters. More importantly, the An-225 could carry a maximum payload of 250 tonnes, while the A380's maximum payload capacity is significantly lower at around 84 tonnes for the passenger version. The An-225 was powered by six massive engines, while the A380 has four. Tragically, the only existing An-225 was destroyed during the early stages of the Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. While there have been ongoing discussions in 2026 about potentially completing a second, unfinished airframe, for now, the A380 remains the world's largest "active" passenger aircraft, but the An-225 still holds the historical record for being the heaviest and largest-wingspan aircraft ever to enter commercial service.
