AN-124:

"The airplane is also used to transport such combat equipment as mechanized infantry combat vehicles, BTR-60PB armored personnel carriers, armored reconnaissance vehicles, self-propelled gun mounts SU-85, ZSU-23-4, ZSU-57-2 and Gvozdika. When necessary, they can be paradropped on airdrop platforms 4P-134, 2P-134 and 14P-134.

Their combat crews are paradropped in two flows via the rear cargo doors, on dropping the last cargo".
