In the early morning of June 24, 2022, an Ilyushin Il-76MD cargo aircraft of the Russian Air Force[1] was operating a flight from Orenburg Tsentralny Airport to Belgorod International Airport with an intermediate flight to Dyagilevo air base crashed immediately after takeoff from Dyagilevo air base,[1] near the Mikhailovsky highway area in the city of Ryazan.[2]

According to the Russian Ministry of Defence, the plane was operating a training flight from Orenburg to Belgorod and landing in Ryazan for refueling.[1]

There were 9 crew members on board.

The following people died as a result of the disaster:

  • Vladimir Petrushin (aircraft commander);
  • Stepan Perminov (navigator)
  • Nikolai Gorbunov (flight engineer-instructor);
  • Dmitriy Andreev (aeronautical engineering by ADO);

Chronology of events

The aircraft performed a training flight from Orenburg to Belgorod with an intermediate landing (for refueling) in Ryazan. There was no cargo on board of the aircraft.[4]

Immediately after takeoff from the air base in Ryazan, a fire broke out in its No.4 engine.[5] The crew decided to make an emergency landing. Before landing, the plane circled over the meadows.[6]

At 3:18 PM, the plane made a hard landing on the ground, damaging power lines. The plane crashed and caught fire. There is no significant damage on the ground after the crash.[7]

Three people died immediately after the crash. The remaining 6 were hospitalized. Two more people later died in the hospital.[8]
