Important Information (Wikipedia)

The Airbus A300-600ST (Super Transporter), or Beluga, is a specialised wide-body airliner used to transport aircraft parts and outsize cargoes. It received the official name of Super Transporter early on, but its nickname, after the beluga whale, which it resembles,[1][2] gained popularity and has since been officially adopted.

Due to Airbus's manufacturing facilities being dispersed, the company had a long term need to transport sizeable components, such as wings and fuselage sections, to their final assembly lines. This had been met by a small fleet of Aero Spacelines "Super Guppies", but these aircraft were aged and increasingly maintenance-intensive to keep in operation. While several different existing aircraft were studied, none were found to be fully satisfactory. Instead, the company came to favour developing a derivative of its standard A300-600. In August 1991, a new joint venture company, Super Airbus Transport International (SATIC), was formed to pursue the venture.

    @begula69 For the “AIRBUS BELUGA” text, I use this webstite, Upload an image (without a background), and the website will generate a corresponding text file. Copy that text and paste it into a label in SimplePlanes. NOTE: You must resize the label until the pixelated text appears clearly.
    For the rear livery, I use fuselage blocks.
