The Ilyushin Il-106 was a proposed Russian heavy military transport aircraft of the 1990s, intended to replace the Il-76. It would have been a four-engined, high-wing cantilever monoplane with a large cabin 34 m long, powered by four Kuznetsov NK-92 or D-100 turbofans of roughly 177 to 186 kN thrust each. The published figures give a length of 57.6 m, a wingspan of 58.5 m, an empty weight of 135,000 kg, a gross weight of 258,000 kg and a useful lift of 80,000 kg, with a cruise speed of 850 km/h and a range of 5,000 km. The design never entered production. In 2016 it was announced that the Il-106 airframe would be re-used for the PAK VTA project, a proposed large military transport for the Russian Air Force.
