Specialists from the Ilyushin Aviation Complex – part of the United Aircraft Corporation within the Rostec State Corporation – conducted flights of the Il-114-300 turboprop airliner from the Arctic islands of Novaya Zemlya and Franz Josef Land.
They tested the aircraft’s flight and navigation systems, including the BINS-2015 inertial navigation system which works independently of satellite networks.

The milestone expands Russian domestic aviation and ensures access to the North Pole and other regions with harsh climates.
