Topic: Ilyushin Il 76


  
  The Ilyushin Il-76
The new transport was expected to replace the turboprop Antonov An-12, and was specified to have a payload capacity of 40 tonnes (44 tons) and a range of 5,000 kilometers (2,700 NMI), with good rough-field capability.
A directive was issued to the Ilyushin OKB (experimental design bureau) for development of the machine, with the work being performed by a team under OKB chief engineer Genrikh Vasilyevich Novozhilov.
It is said this was the first Ilyushin aircraft not built directly under the control of OKB founder Sergei Ilyushin; his health was failing and he would retire in 1970.
