das Tupolew Tu-134 (Name des NATO-Berichts: Crusty) ist ein zweimotoriges, schmalrumpfiges Düsenflugzeug, das in der Sowjetunion von 1966 bis 1989 für Kurz- und Mittelstrecken gebaut wurde. Die ursprüngliche Version hatte eine verglaste Nase und kann wie einige andere russische Verkehrsflugzeuge (einschließlich des Schwestermodells Tu-154) von unbefestigten Flugplätzen aus operieren.

General Characteristics (Soviet Era)
The Tupolev Tu-134 is a twin-engine, short-to-medium-range jet airliner developed in the Soviet Union, originally conceived to replace the Ilyushin Il-14. The ‘A’ variant was the first major production modification, introducing improved engines and increased passenger capacity.

Design and Powerplant
- Engines: Two Soloviev D-30-II or D-30-III turbofan engines.
- Engine Placement: A distinctive feature, the engines are mounted in two nacelles on the sides of the rear fuselage (similar to the BAC One-Eleven or Douglas DC-9).
- Thrust (D-30-II): Approx. 66.7 kN (15,000 lbf) per engine.
- Cockpit: Features a glazed nose, originally intended for a navigator, a hallmark of early Soviet jet transport design (though sometimes phased out on later A models).
- Wing Design: Features a swept wing with noticeable dihedral and leading-edge slats for improved low-speed handling.
- Landing Gear: Equipped with low-pressure tires for operation from unprepared airfields, a common Soviet design requirement.
Performance and Variants
- Maximum Cruise Speed: 900 km/h (560 mph, 486 knots).
- Operational Range: Approximately 1,800 to 2,000 km (1,100 to 1,240 miles).
- Service Ceiling: 12,100 m (39,700 ft).
- Key Improvement (Tu-134A): Compared to the original Tu-134, the ‘A’ variant has a stretched fuselage for more seating and an improved turbofan engine. It also replaced the rear braking parachute with reverse thrust on the engines.
- Noise Issues: Due to the high exhaust velocity of its early turbofan engines, the Tu-134 family was known to be extremely loud and was one of the first Soviet types to be banned from many European airports due to noise restrictions in the 1990s and 2000s.
