The Black Tulip, aka the An-12 is a Soviet-made transport military aircraft that saw most of its service in the First Russo-Chechen War and the Soviet-Afghan War. The aircraft infamously carried dead soldiers back home. Today, it is scarcely used for cargo, civilian transport and even still in military service in other small countries.
