Ilyushin Il-18


The Ilyushin Il-18 (NATO reporting name: Coot) is a large turboprop airliner that first flew in 1957 and became one of the best known and durable Soviet aircraft of its era. The Il-18 was one of the world's principal airliners for several decades and was widely exported. Due to the aircraft's airframe durability, many examples achieved over 45,000 flight hours and the type remains operational in both military and (to a lesser extent) civilian capacities. The Il-18's successor was the long range Il-62 jet airliner.
==Design and development==
Two Soviet aircraft shared the designation Ilyushin Il-18. The first Il-18 was a propeller-driven airliner of 1946 but after a year of test flights that programme was abandoned.
In the early 1950s a need to replace older designs and increase the size of the Soviet civil transport fleet, a Soviet Council of Ministers directive was issued on 30 December 1955 to the chief designers Kuznetsov and Ivchenko to develop new turboprop engines and to Ilyushin and Antonov to design an aircraft to use these engines.〔Gordon and Komissarov 2004, pp. 7-9〕 The two aircraft designs were developed as the Ilyushin Il-18 and the Antonov An-10 and the engine chosen was the Kuznetsov NK-4 rather than the Ivchenko AI-20.〔
The Il-18 design had started in 1954 before the directive was issued and experience with the piston-engined Il-18 was used although the aircraft was a new design.〔 The design was for a four-engined low-wing monoplane with a circular pressurised fuselage and a conventional tail.〔 The forward retracting tricycle landing gear had four-wheels fitted on the main leg bogies, the main legs bogies rotated 90 degrees and retracted into the rear of the inboard engines.〔 A new feature at the time was the fitting of a weather radar in the nose and it was the first soviet airliner to have an automatic approach system.〔 The aircraft has two entry doors on the port-side before and after the wing and two overwing emergency exits on each side.〔
The prototype SSSR-L5811 was rolled out in June 1957 and after ground-testing it began taxying test and high-speed runs on 1 July 1957.〔 On 4 July 1957 the prototype first flew from Khodynka.〔 On 10 July 1957 the aircraft was flown to Moscow-Vnukovo Airport to be presented to a soviet government commission, also present was the prototype Antonov An-10 and the Tupolev Tu-114.〔 The Il-18 type was formally named ''Moskva'' and this was painted on the fuselage, although the name was not used when the aircraft entered production.〔
The Moscow Machinery Plant No. 30 located at Khodynka near where the Ilyushin design office and the prototype had been built was chosen to manufacture the aircraft.〔Gordon and Komissarov 2004, pp. 13-49〕 During 1957 the plant began to reduce its production of the Ilyushin Il-14 and prepare to build the production aircraft designated IL-18A.〔 The Il-18A was only different from the prototype in minor details mainly internal configuration to increase the seating from 75 to 89.〔
The first production aircraft were powered by the Kuznetsov NK-4 but the engines were plagued with problems so the Council of Ministers decreed in July 1958 that all production from November 1958 would use the Ivchenko AI-20 and earlier production would be re-engined.〔 Only 20 IL-18As were built before production changed to the improved Il-18B, this new variant had a higher-gross weight, the nose was re-designed with a larger radome which increased the length by 20 cm.〔 The first Il-18B flew on 30 September 1958 powered by the AI-20, a VIP variant was also built as the IL-18S for the Soviet Air Force.〔 From April 1961 a TG-18 Auxiliary Power Unit was fitted for ground starting rather than the bank of lead-acid batteries, some aircraft were modified to allow the APU to be run in flight.〔
With experience of the earlier aircraft a further improvement was the Il-18V variant.〔 The Il-18V was structurally the same but the interior was re-designed including moving the galley and some minor system changes.〔 The first Il-18V appeared in December 1959 and was to continue into production until 1965 after 334 had been built.〔 Specialised variants of the aircraft also appeared including aircraft modified for flight calibration and a long-range polar variant.〔 Military variants also appeared including the anti-submarine Ilyushin Il-38.〔
