IL-28R

 

After Ilyushin had developed a two-pilot trainer version of the Il-28 Beagle,

they turned their attention to developing a reconnaissance version known as the Il-28R which first flew on 19 Apr 1950.

The Il-28R was equipped with a camera suite in the bomb bay, together with mountings for am portside oblique camera in the rear fuselage.

Various day or night cameras could be carried and for night photography 12 flares were also carried in the rear of the bomb bay.

Fitting a larger fuselage fuel tank, which abutted into the rear of the bomb bay and by adding wingtip tanks, increased the range of the Il-28R.

Although the rear tail gunner was retained, the right nose cannon was removed and replaced with camera controls – the bomb aiming radar was also removed.

Production of the Il-28R was authorised in late 1951 and it soon entered VVS service.
