Painting of first serial Il-76MD-90A aircraft was completed
Painting of first serial Il-76MD-90A transport aircraft was completed. The jet was decorated with “Ulyanovsk” sign and the emblem of Ulyanovsk Region, the press-service reports.
For the first time ever Russian-produced polyurethane enamel was used for painting Il-76MD-90A. The All-Russian Scientific Research Institute of Aviation Materials (VIAM) developed special enamels VE-69 and VE-71 for the upgraded “Il” aircraft. «The special feature of this paint is that it is almost matt rather than gloss. It has better spreadability and lower shagreen. VE-71 enamel has high abrasion and temperature resistance when applied to composites. These features are part of requirements set by the Russian military-transport aviation. These enamels also have some special protective properties», - First Deputy CEO of Spektr Avia, Vitaly Alexandrovich Zotov, explained.
The jet in the livery approved by Russian Ministry of Defense was delivered to Aviastar-SP in order to start planned ground and flight testing.
Il-76MD-90A was derived from Il-76MD aircraft, which was manufactured in Uzbekistan by Tashkent Aviation Production Association named after V.P. Chkalov.
Russian Ministry of Defense signed a contract for delivery of 39 Il-76MD-90A transport aircraft in October 2012 at a meeting held by the president of Russian Federation, Vladimir Putin.

Photos from open door day in Aviastar-SP in Ulyanovsk. It is interesting to notice, that some of Il-76MD-90A have modified nose, where could be installed MAWS sensors and DIRCM complex.

Re: Il-76/476 Military Transports
Just develop new engines for it and stop wasting time with hacks. If it takes 10 years to do this then so be it.
I bet they would waste 10 years just talking about why things can't be done.
BTW, spending $10 billion on welfare or on aircraft development is the not the same thing as far as the GDP is concerned.
The latter creates jobs and a usable product which brings long term GDP growth. The former is all about feel good populism
that expires almost instantaneously. Russia can find the time and the money to do this right.

Russia is going to assemble 7 IL-76MD-90A in 2016, 11 in 2017 and 18 in 2018, apparently this info came from Aviastar-SP.
