There is little time left for development and testing of the new aircraft, noted IL PJSC - from the 2023 of the year, the life of the military transport An-12 will begin to come to an end. They are intended to replace the new aircraft.
IL-276 - tactical military transport aircraft developed in the Ilyushin Design Bureau. Initially, the project was Russian-Indian, in 2015, India left it. The jet is designed to replace the An-12 and An-26 turboprop in Russia. According to the project, IL-276 is capable of transporting up to 80 percent of the necessary army cargo and equipment at much lower costs.
