The Russian military transport aircraft Il-76MD-90A(E) has been presented to 11 foreign customers during the year. The Il-78MK-90A tanker aircraft was presented to five air force delegations of the special exporter's partners, said Alexander Mikheev, General Director of Rosoboronexport.
He recalled that the premiere foreign show of the Il-76MD-90A(E) military transport aircraft took place at the Dubai Airshow 2023. After that, the aircraft was demonstrated at the World Defense Show 2024 in Saudi Arabia.
At both exhibitions, it attracted increased attention due to the fact that the aircraft was presented in a new technical guise with expanded functionality and an updated composition of onboard equipment, ensuring the implementation of both transport and special tasks.
Mikheev noted that the advantage of the Il-76MD-90A(E) is its multifunctionality. It allows for the rapid transportation of cargo and troops, extinguishing man-made and natural fires, and evacuating the wounded and sick.
Earlier www1.ru reported that Western countries will not be able to catch up with Russia in the development of hypersonic technologies. This opinion was expressed by the President of the National Research Center "Kurchatov Institute" Mikhail Kovalchuk.
