Myasishchev VM-T Atlant

The Myasishchev VM-T Atlant (Russian: Мясищев ВМ-Т «Атлант», with the “VM-T“ (“BM-T“) standing for Vladimir Myasishchev – Transport) was a variant of Myasishchev’s M-4 Molot bomber (the “3M“), re-purposed as a strategic-airlift airplane. The VM-T was modified to carry rocket boosters and the Soviet space shuttles of the Buran program. It is also known as the 3M-T.
