The Tupolev ANT-14 "Pravda" was a Soviet aircraft, which served as the flagship of the Soviet propaganda squadron.

The ANT-14 was an enlargement of the ANT-9 with a wingspan of 40.40 m as against the 23.80 m of the ANT-9. Powered by five 358 kW Gnome-Rhône Jupiter 9AKX radial engines, it was capable of carrying a crew of three, as well as 36 passengers, at a maximum speed of 236 km/h. However cruise speed was only 195 km/h. Empty weight was 10,650 kg and maximum take-off weight was 17,146 kg. The ANT-14 had a range of 900 km, and an operational ceiling of 4,220 m.
