The Ilyushin IL-76TD is a four-engine Soviet wide-body freighter built for rugged conditions. It handles a payload of 48,000 kg, cruises at 759 km/h (410 kts), and can cover 4,500 km (2,430 NM) on a full load. Its cargo bay measures 2,440 × 346 × 340 cm, with a large side door of 345 × 340 cm. Though less efficient in fuel burn than twin-jets, its strength lies in field flexibility, heavy load tolerance, and proven reliability in demanding environments. It’s ideal for operators needing wide-body lift into austere or remote cargo destinations.
