Den Ilyushin Il-18 er et stort turbopropfly som først fløy i 1957 og ble et av de mest kjente sovjetiske flyene i sin tid. Il-18 var et av verdens viktigste passasjerfly i flere tiår og ble mye eksportert. På grunn av flyets holdbarhet oppnådde mange eksempler over 45 000 flytimer og typen er fortsatt operativ i både militære og (i mindre grad) sivile kapasiteter. Il-18s etterfølger var Ilyushin Il-62 med lengre rekkevidde.
