We created this women’s T-shirt inspired by the strength and beauty of the heavyweights of Ukrainian military aviation from the 456th Dmytro Maiboroda Brigade, which belongs to the Centre Air Command and is based in Vinnytsia region.
The brigade is armed with An-26 military transport aircraft and various types of helicopters for combat, search and rescue and air ambulance operations.
The 456th Brigade has been defending Ukraine from russian aggression for 10 years. It was one of the first to go to the East of Ukraine in 2014. In July of the first year of the war, the enemy shot down our An-26 transport aircraft with two crew members on board in the sky over Luhansk region. After that, a new An-26 was named after the fallen commander, and later the Brigade itself.
The Pegasus is the symbol of the 456th Brigade and is depicted on its official emblem: in our variation, it is extremely fearsome, yet fabulous and romanticised.
