Ilyushin design bureau will upgrade Il-114 for performing flights in the Arctic Region

Russian Aviaton » Tuesday August 11, 2015 16:45 MSK

Ilyushin design bureau will develop a version of Il-114 aircraft fitted with ski and wheel landing gear; the vehicle will be operated in the Arctic Region, RIA Novosti reports with reference to Ilyushin Company Chief Designer Sergey Gromov.

United Aircraft Corporation (UAC) presented a prototype of the upgraded Il-114 (patrol aircraft version) intended for national security and law enforcement agencies at Army-2015 forum.

“We see Il-114 as not only passenger aircraft, but also as a transport platform. The program for development of the Arctic Region for the period until 2020 includes three Il-114 aircraft fitted with ski and wheel landing gear, which is being developed by Gidromash (Nizhny Novgorod),” Gromov said.

He added that the upgraded aircraft will be designated Il-114-300 and will be manufactured in the network of a program for import substitution – it will be produced in Russia using only Russian-produced components.

According to Gromov, the aircraft will be used for performing flights between Russian stations located in the Arctic Region; at present vehicles delivered from Canada are operated there, because “Russia has no suitable analogues”.

The Chief Designer also explained that 4 versions of Il-114-300 would be developed. The basic one is a passenger version; its deliveries should be started in 2019. Cargo and Arctic versions will be derived from the passenger one as well as the patrol aircraft, whose prototype was showcased at Army-2015 forum.

  Light combat Yak-130M
  The presentation of the Ya-130M aircraft took place at the international military-technical forum "Army-2024", which was held from August 12 to 14, 2024 at the Patriot Convention and Exhibition Center. It should be noted right away that this is not just the modernization of the Yak-130 aircraft, but the transformation of a combat training aircraft into a full-fledged light combat aircraft. In the information field, this event was marked by a number of brief reports from federal news agencies. But the project, like the Yak-130 aircraft with its unique flight characteristics, deserves a more detailed review, which we decided to do.
