The Ilyushin Il-76 is a multi-purpose, fixed-wing, four-engine turbofan strategic airlifter designed by the Soviet Union's Ilyushin design bureau as a commercial freighter in 1967, to replace the Antonov An-12. It was developed to deliver heavy machinery to remote and poorly served areas. Military versions of the Il-76 have been widely used in Europe, Asia and Africa, including use as an aerial refueling tanker and command center.
Capabilities vary with variant, equipment, load, crew and operating authority. This page does not publish unverified generic performance figures.

Every row has a cross-checked Mode-S address. The catalog never derives that address from the registration.
