The A300-600ST Beluga shares many design similarities, although substantially differing in appearance, to the Airbus A300 it was based upon.[4] The wings, engines, landing gear, and the lower part of the fuselage remain identical to those used on the conventional A300, while the upper part of the fuselage forms an enormous horseshoe-shaped structure 7.7 m (25 ft) in diameter. In comparison with the Super Guppy, the payload was more than doubled and the volume increased by more than 30 per cent.[13] The
General Electric CF6-80C2 turbofan engines used are slightly uprated from those used on the standard A300 as well.[10] The vertical stabilizer uses a modified Airbus A340 fin with a 1.12 m (3 ft 8 in) base extension while the tailplane was strengthened and fitted with auxiliary fins to maintain directional stability. The tailplane trim tank was also deleted.[4][5]
