The aircraft involved in the accident was a Russian Air Force-operated Ilyushin Il-76MD, designed by the Ilyushin Design Bureau and manufactured by the Tashkent Aviation Production Association in the Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic (modern-day Uzbekistan). The Il-76 involved, registered as RA-78804, was initially made in 1989, flying for Soviet Air Forces until in 1991. The aircraft later made its way to operate with the Russian Air Force until the crash in 1996.
The accident

Carrying an official payload of 30 tonnes (66,000 lb), the aircraft underwent refueling at Abakan before attempting takeoff. However, during the climb-out phase, the plane ascended with an unusually shallow climb angle, deviating from standard procedures. Instead of initiating a turn 4 km from the runway at a minimum altitude of 200 m, the aircraft continued on a straight path until reaching the designated altitude. By this point, the plane was turning towards rising terrain. The aircraft collided with a hillside 14 km beyond the runway, resulting in a fire. 23 people died instantly in impact with no survivors.[2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]
