The first flight took place a few weeks later on December 21, However, the celebration did not last long. After dissolution of Soviet Union, the Buran project was cancelled in and the aircraft was grounded at the Kiev-Gostomel Airport.
The parts of the aircraft were then used for repairs of AN aircrafts, while the airframe slowly began to decay. Over the years, the demand for shipping of heavy cargo by air increased and a new era of the Mriya could begin.
After 7 long years, Mriya took flight on May 7, for 30 minutes during a testing flight and since then, AN has been operating on a commercial charter basis for both civil and military purposes.

The development of the first prototype began in early and its maiden flight took place in December It entered into service in The modifications included the lengthening of fuselage and wingspan, addition of two engines, redesign of the tail with twin vertical fins, increase in the number of landing gear tires to 32 and the removal of the rear cargo doors.
The development of the second prototype began in the late s with the aim of achieving more effective cargo transport aircraft. The prototype was upgraded with a rear cargo door and a redesigned tail fitted with a vertical stabiliser.
Its development was, however, debarred in due to lack of funds and collapse of the Soviet Union in The increase in demand for heavy freight transport aircraft resulted in resuming the development of second prototype in September The development was again deserted in August , however. The Cossack features an airborne cargo handling system and a cargo door fitted with a ramp to carry out loading or unloading missions quickly and easily.
It also features a fuselage barrel extension on the front and rear of the wings to increase the span. The load securing system attaches uniquely size cargoes to the upper fuselage section. The aircraft features an IFR compatible, all digital flight deck, which can accommodate six crew including a pilot, co-pilot, navigator, radio operator and two flight engineers. The flight deck is incorporated with automated navigation and flight control systems for quick analysing and servicing.
The large pressurised cargo compartment can carry wide variety of payloads. The length and width of the compartment are 43m and 6.
