[32] [33] [34] Both the earlier and later takeoff weights establish the An-225 as the world's heaviest aircraft, exceeding the weight of the double-deck Airbus A380 airliner. Airbus claims to have improved upon the An-225's maximum landing weight by landing an A380 at 591.7 t (652.2 short tons) during testing. [35] [a]

English: An overlay diagram showing five of the largest airplanes ever built, the Hughes H-4 Spruce Goose (airplane with the greatest height), the Antonov An-225 Mriya (the largest airplane), the Boeing 747-8 Intercontinental (the largest version of the Boeing 747 Jumbojet), the Airbus A380-800 (the largest passenger airplane), and the Scaled Composites Stratolaunch (airplane with the greatest ...
When the Airbus A380 was announced, the maker originally accepted orders for the freighter version A380F, offering the second largest payload capacity of any cargo aircraft, exceeded only by the An-225. [9] An aerospace consultant has estimated that the A380F would have 7% better payload and better range than the 747-8F, but also higher trip costs.

The main deck cargo volume of the Beluga is greater than that of the C-5 Galaxy or the Antonov An-124, but still smaller than Antonov An-225. However, it is restricted by cargo-weight capacity of 47 tonnes, compared to 122.5 tonnes for the C-5 Galaxy and 150 tonnes for the An-124.
