The Antonov An-70 has been in service with "open rotor" engines for 30+ years. It's superior to its western counterparts in every way. i.e. greater speed and payload with less fuel consumption than a C-130 or A400M.

You know what makes the C-130 or the A400M superior? The fact there's more than one operational today.
