A four-engined Ilyushin Il-96-300PU of Russia's Special Flight Squadron 'Rossiya' — the presidential fleet that flies Vladimir Putin. The 'PU' suffix stands for 'command post': the jet doubles as an airborne command center able to direct Russian forces, including nuclear, and this airframe was delivered in 2016 with hardened communications and a palatial interior.
