A Russian military transport plane with 15 people on board crashed on Tuesday while taking off from an air base in western Russia, the Defense Ministry said.
It said the Il-76 aircraft with eight crew and seven passengers crashed in the Ivanovo region. It didn’t say whether there were any survivors.
Who was on board?
Wonder if sanctions meant they couldn’t get parts.
*probably not
The four-engine Il-76 is a heavy-lift transport plane that has been in service since the 1970s with the Soviet and then Russian air force.

The parts are made by a Russian company in Russia. They are certainly supplying the military.
They goes straight to hell.
Oh shit we’re doing this again.
For once Boeing is doing God’s work.
I don’t disagree with the sentiment but the Ilyushin Il-76 is made by Ilyushin, not Boeing. Let’s not cross the streams incorrectly.
Sorry, I forgot to tag the comment above with JOKE
