The Ilyushin Il-14 was a Soviet twin-engine passenger and cargo aircraft of the 1950s and 1960s. It was developed from the earlier Il-12 and had a more powerful engine, a larger wing and a redesigned fuselage. The Il-14 was widely used by Aeroflot, the Soviet civil aviation authority, as well as by several other countries in Europe, Asia and Africa. The Il-14 could carry up to 32 passengers or 6 tons of cargo and had a range of about 2,500 km. The Il-14 was also adapted for military use as a transport, reconnaissance, bomber and trainer aircraft. The Il-14 was retired from service in the late 1970s and early 1980s, although some examples are still preserved in museums and private collections.
