The Most Threatening Planes In Military History

The Ilyushin Il-76

Back in 1974, they created a plane called the Ilyushin Il-76. It was 152 feet long and was meant to take the place of another plane called Antonov. This plane was quite speedy, going as fast as 559 miles per hour, and it was the first big plane in Russia to have four engines. They’ve built nearly 1,000 of these planes so far, and many of them are still flying today.

So, it’s like a workhorse of the skies, a big and fast airplane that’s been around for a while and continues to do its job. It’s a bit like the superhero of the air, helping to move important things from one place to another. It’s heavy for sure but safe to say, it’s highly secure and can be trusted in matters of life and death even.
