The company offers for sale four 767s — two passengers -300ER and two 767 cargoes — which were built in 2003-2004 and 1996-1997 respectively. It also proposes two 757-200s from 1999. All six aircrafts are powered by Pratt & Whitney engines.
Uzbekistan Airways also sells seven of its Ilyushin Il-114-100 turboprops, built between 1999 and 2013, as well as a simulator for the same type of aircraft.
Only a small number of Il-114s have been built, of which Uzbekistan Airways is one of the main operators. The production of Il-114 is resurrected thanks to a modernized version, Il-114-300.
Uzbekistan Airways also sells five Ilyushin Il-76TD heavy freighters.
The airlines fleet renewal program includes the introduction of the Boeing 787-8, the fifth of which arrived at the company’s base in Tashkent in early July.
