Description

The Il-96M long-range, wide-body airliner is a stretched derivative of the Il-96-300 equipped with western engines and avionics. The aircraft's seating capacity was increased to accommodate up to 375 passengers. The most significant improvement introduced into the Il-96M compared to the Il-96-300 are the four US-built PW2037 engines rated at 37,000 pounds of thrust. These engines are far more reliable and fuel efficient than Russian made PS90A turbofans. Ilyushin and the Russian Industry were studying the development of a re-engined Il-96 with more powerful turbofans and the development of a twin-engine variant called the Il-98 which would be powered by western turbofans such as GE90, Trent 800 and PW4000. Both projects Il-96M and Il-98 were finally rejected by Ilyushin Aviation Complex.
