Russia’s United Engine Corp. to provide relaunched Il-114’s engine
Russia’s United Engine Corp. (UEC), a part of state-owned Rostec, is ready to equip Ilyushin Il-114-300 aircraft with turboprop engine TV7-117ST, UEC said Feb 16. The Il-114-300 is a relaunched version of the Ilyushin Il-114 regional airliner. The TV7-117ST is a main engine for the Il-112V military aircraft. The engine’s maximum take-off power on the Il-114-300 will reach 3,000 hp, with a contingency power of 3,600 hp, UEC said. “The use of the same engine for the Il-112V and Il-114-300 will allow us to cut costs and will be an example for the transfer of military technologies to civil aircraft,” UEC added. The Il-114 is twin-engined turboprop designed by the Ilyushin design bureau in the late 1980s. Aircraft were assembled in Tashkent, Uzbekistan, but in 2012 the line was closed with just 20 aircraft built. <br/>
