Ilyushin Il-90

Airliners and Commercial Jet Aircraft

The Ilyushin Il-90 was a twin-engine, widebody airliner proposed by the Ilyushin Design Bureau as a replacement for the Il-62M long-range narrowbody airliner. It was first mentioned at the Farnborough air show in 1988. The design was meant to carry 200 passengers a distance of 5,900 to 7,000 nautical miles, roughly 11,000 to 13,000 kilometres, and on a 540 nautical mile sector its per-passenger fuel consumption was to be 18 to 19 grams per kilometre. The powerplant choices included the NK-92, a ducted propfan engine of 18,000 kilograms-force thrust that was related to the Kuznetsov NK-93. The sources record it only as a proposal and describe no prototype.
