  To explain the unusual richness and compactness of the Abell 2744, we propose
a hypothesis that it may be a rich supercluster aligned along the sightline,
and present a supporting evidence obtained numerically from the MultiDark
Planck 2 simulations with a linear box size of $1\,h^{-1}$Gpc. Applying the
friends-of-friends (FoF) algorithm with a linkage length of $0.33$ to a sample
of the cluster-size halos from the simulations, we identify the superclusters
and investigate how many superclusters have filamentary branches that would
appear to be similar to the Abell 2744 if the filamentary axis is aligned with
the sightline. Generating randomly a unit vector as a sightline at the position
of the core member of each supercluster and projecting the positions of the
members onto the plane perpendicular to the direction of the sightline, we
measure two dimensional distances ($R_{2d}$) of the member halos from the core
for each supercluster. Defining a Abell 2744-like spuercluster as the one
having a filamentary branch composed of eight or more members with $R_{2d}\le
1\,$Mpc and masses comparable to those of the observed Abell 2744
substructures, we find one Abell 2744-like supercluster at $z=0.3$ and two at
$z=0$. Repeating the same analysis but with the data from the Big MultiDark
Planck simulations performed on a larger box of linear size of
$2.5\,h^{-1}$Mpc, we find that the number of the Abell 2744-like superclusters
at $z=0$ increases up to eighteen, among which three are found more massive
than $5\times 10^{15}\,M_{\odot}$.
