The new engines give the improved Il-76MD 90A military transport aircraft a high thrust-to-weight ratio, said Nikolai Kuimov, Hero of the Russian Federation, test pilot.

Outwardly, the modernized aircraft hardly differs from the legendary Il-76, but in fact the famous transport aircraft has a number of advantages over its predecessors. In the new edition of the Military Acceptance program, Kuimov, who conducted flight tests of the Il-76MD 90A, spoke about the main features of the aircraft, the Zvezda TV channel reports .

The pilot noted that thanks to the PS-90A engines, the aircraft became much quieter. Also, the Il-76MD 90A can land on any military or civil aviation airfields in Europe, the USA and other countries.

"It has a new flight and navigation complex that allows you to perform various tasks," added Kuimov.
