@narlzp: Russia's OTHER turboprop, the TU-95, it's blades ARE supersonic at the tips, Mach 1.08, making it, by far, the noisiest, and fastest production turboprop ever. 17.5 ft diameter at 750RPM = 687mph at the blade tips!!! The fastest experiemental turboprop was the Boeing XB-47D. They converted two B-47B models from six turbojets to two turboprops and two turbojets. Top speed was 598mph. USAF lost interest especially with the B-52 (BUFF) coming on line.

like future pak-fa and eurofigter and many other

I love the noise those props make, I hope this project will be a success for Antonov, they make very good transport aircraft.
