Project news IL-112
Recently, there have been new reports on the implementation of the program for the development and construction of the Il-112В military transport aircraft. According to some data, due to certain reasons, the volume of the order of this technology will be reduced. It was originally planned to build more than 2020 of such machines by the 60 year, but now the planned order quantities have been reduced.
On May 14, the Interfax news agency, citing an unnamed source in the defense industry, announced the upcoming revision of plans for the purchase of a new aviation technicians. Initially, the military was going to acquire 62 Il-112V aircraft until 2020. In the near future, the volume of equipment planned for the order will be reduced. At the same time, however, the source of Interfax did not specify how many aircraft would be built and transferred to the military department.
Despite the reduction of plans, the contract for the supply of new military transport aircraft will be signed as soon as possible. The agreement is scheduled to be signed in the second quarter of this year. The first production Il-112V vehicles will be built and transferred to the customer at the end of 2018 or at the beginning of 2019. Thus, by the end of the decade, the Ministry of Defense will not be able to receive the originally planned 62 aircraft, including due to reduced purchases.
Currently, the company "Aviation Complex. S.V. Ilyushin ”continues to develop the project IL-112В, and also is preparing for the construction and testing of the first cars of the new model. It should be noted that the creation of the Il-112В military transport aircraft started relatively recently, at the beginning of the last decade. At the same time, the development of the basic version of the Il-112 aircraft began in the first half of the nineties, but for various reasons, the construction of the prototype with subsequent tests was repeatedly postponed. As a result, for two decades of work, the Il-112 aircraft did not go into the series.
Despite all the plans that existed, the project stopped in the middle of 2011. In addition, the construction of the prototype has ceased. Over the next few months, there were no reports on the progress of the IL-112 project. Only in January, 2013, it became known that the Main Command of the Air Force prepared a justification for the resumption of work on the draft of a new military transport aircraft. In August of the same year, the Ilyushin management confirmed the resumption of work on the project.
In 2013, information appeared on the approximate delivery times of the first production Il-112В aircraft: 2018 year. In December, 2014, the Ministry of Defense and the “Aviation Complex named after S.V. Ilyushin ”signed a new project development contract. It was alleged that in 2016, the first flight of the prototype aircraft would take place, and in 2018, the air force would receive the first production vehicles.
The development of the project of a new military transport aircraft is being carried out by the company “Aviation Complex named after S.V. Ilyushin. In the construction of serial IL-112В several other organizations will participate. The main contractor will be the Voronezh Joint-Stock Aircraft Building Company, where the construction of an experimental aircraft has already been carried out. The required turboprop engines will be supplied by Klimov.
It is noteworthy that the source "Interfax" says the delivery of the first production aircraft not earlier than the end of 2018 of the year. Such terms are not very different from those previously mentioned. Last year and the year before, the year 2018 was also called the start date for the use of serial equipment. As for the possible transfer of aircraft at the beginning of 2019, this can be considered an adjustment of the timing of the future order after reassessing the capabilities of the aviation industry.
The first serial IL-112V will go to the troops in 2018-19's. Thus, the construction of the planned 62 aircraft will continue, at least until the mid-twenties, which seriously gets out of the existing State Armaments Program, calculated to 2020 year. It is possible that the current plans were adjusted for precisely these reasons.
IL-112В airplanes are intended to replace outdated equipment with similar characteristics, for example, An-26. According to the developer, the normal payload of the aircraft is 3,5 t, the maximum is 6 t. cabs - 11,28 m, height - 8,4 m. Cars of various types can be transported in such volumes, as well as cargo on standard pallets. To simplify the loading of the aircraft should be equipped with winches and hoists.
The Il-112В military transport aircraft with a maximum take-off weight at the 21 t level should be equipped with two TV7-117CT turboprop engines with a power up to 2800 hp developed by Klimov. Such engines with six-blade propellers AB-112 should provide sufficiently high performance. The maximum speed of the new aircraft is declared at the level of 550 km / h, cruising - about 470 km / h. With a maximum payload, the range will reach 1000 km, and at normal, 3400 km.
IL-112 was originally designed as a multipurpose aircraft, capable of carrying both cargo and passengers. In the passenger configuration, the aircraft could carry up to 44 passengers with baggage. It is on the basis of the basic IL-112 project that the Il-112В military transport aircraft was developed. There is also a project of a civilian cargo aircraft called the IL-112T. It is to some extent similar to IL-112B, but differs in various features related to the intended scope of application.
Different sources mentioned the possibility of developing new modifications designed to solve certain problems. Could appear polar aircraft with the ability to install a ski landing gear, training modification, aircraft with a set of aerial cameras, etc. As far as is known, for now all these modifications of IL-112 remain at the level of preliminary proposals. Projects are not developed due to lack of interest from potential customers.
It cannot be ruled out that new modifications of the IL-112 will still be created in the future, but for the time being, aircraft building organizations are busy developing the IL-112 project for the Ministry of Defense and preparing for the construction of experimental aircraft of this type. According to previously announced data, the first flight of such an aircraft should take place next year.
