US politics prevented further development of this variant. Eh? Could someone elaborate on this? These are Russian planes, after all. Mr. Jones 10:30, 8 Mar 2004 (UTC)

Financing of western avionics (Collins & Honeywell) and engines (Pratt & Whitney), are done by US Govt Eximbank

I removed Having learned a bitter lesson during development of the Il-96M/T, , because there is no mention of what this 'bitter lesson' might actually have been. Dan100 18:44, May 6, 2005 (UTC)

The "unit price" is incorrect - according to Aeroflot's website the figures were only the fees per aircraft of the airline's deal to lease 6 aircraft for 15 years. I have removed them from the information box. Zero76 09:28, 30 January 2007 (UTC)

Both this and Tu-204 say that they were the first to introduce western engines. --80.63.213.182 16:17, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

Tu-204 and Il-96 both introduced their plan to westernize with western engines at around the same time almost immediately after the fall of Soviet Union, so I guess it would be difficult to say who's first and who's second. The bottomline is that the development of Il-96 with western engine failed due to lack of funds in the certification process. The Tu-204, however, went through the certification process with the western engines and is now selling both western and Russian versions. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Aviageek (talk • contribs) 7. dec 2006 kl. 19:58.
