P.Butowski - Il-114 Revival /Commercial/
The fairing beneath the Il-114LL's nose covers sensors under test by Radar MMS, including a deployable electro-optical turret and an active missile seeker, probably an ARGS-35 for the anti-ship Kh-35 missile.
The Il-114’s cockpit requires serious modernisation - if production does resume, it would come 25 years after the first flight.
Another proposed derivative is the Il-140 airborne early warning and control aircraft, featuring a rotating radar dome above the fuselage.
Top to bottom: the Il-114LL test platform; the Il-114P designed for coast, sea border and 200-mile economic zone survelliance; and the Il-114-MP for anti-ship and anti-submarine operations.
