During the early 1980s, Antonov experimented with an An-2 powered by a {{cvt|1450|hp|order=flip}} Glushenkov [[turboprop]] engine. Aircraft with this engine had a longer, streamlined nose. It received the designation [[Antonov An-3|An-3]].<ref name = "An-2"/>

During 2013, Antonov announced that it had flown a new An-2 version, the ''An-2-100'', with a three-blade reversible propeller and a {{cvt|1500|shp|order=flip}} [[Motor Sich]] MS-14 turboprop running on [[kerosene]] rather than Avgas, which is no longer produced in CIS countries.<ref name=":0">{{cite web |author-last=Gethin |author-first=Howard |url=http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/antonov-flies-turboprop-powered-an-2-100-389083 |title=Antonov flies turboprop-powered An-2-100 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130808074438/http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/antonov-flies-turboprop-powered-an-2-100-389083/ |archive-date=8 August 2013 |website=[[Flight Global]] |date=5 August 2013}}</ref> That same year, the company stated that it had received orders for upgrading hundreds in [[Azerbaijan]], [[Cuba]] and [[Russia]] to the An-2-100 version.<ref name="усовершенствованные кукурузники">{{cite news | url=http://korrespondent.net/business/companies/1579862-rossiya-zakazala-u-antonova-usovershenstvovannye-kukuruzniki |trans-title=Russia Orders Improved Agricultural Aircraft from Antonov| script-title=ru:Россия заказала у Антонова усовершенствованные кукурузники | work=[[Korrespondent]] | date=11 July 2013 | access-date=4 September 2013 | language=ru | archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130814112252/http://korrespondent.net/business/companies/1579862-rossiya-zakazala-u-antonova-usovershenstvovannye-kukuruzniki | archive-date=14 August 2013 | url-status=live | df=dmy-all }}</ref>

The Siberian Research Institute of Aviation (SIBNIA) test flew a modified An-2 with winglets and a carbon fibre wing structure. It was equipped with a turboprop engine with a five bladed propeller. According to Russian aviation company [[Sukhoi]], this aircraft was a demonstrator for an An-2 replacement announced on 10 June 2015. The carbonfibre composite materials, including wing panels, spars and ribs were produced by the Novosibirsk Aviation Plant. Sukhoi says the design change increased its speed by 50%.<ref>{{cite web |last=Trimble |first=Stephen  |date=10 June 2015 |url=http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/modernised-an-2-demonstrator-completes-first-flight-413382/ |title=Modernised An-2 demonstrator completes first flight |work=[[Flight International]] |access-date=2015-06-13 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150613034759/http://www.flightglobal.com/news/articles/modernised-an-2-demonstrator-completes-first-flight-413382/ |archive-date=2015-06-13 |url-status=live }}</ref>
