RG has already written that the new Il-114-300 aircraft will be shown at the MAKS-2021 International Aviation and Space Salon. Although the aircraft was designed, tested and even launched into a series back in the Soviet Union, today it is a completely new, completely modernized version of this prototype. The aircraft has great prospects in both civil and military aviation.
