Ilyushin Il-102 was an experimental jet powered ground-attack aircraft designed by Ilyushin. This aircraft was never chosen for production, being surpassed by the Su-25, and only a few development prototypes were built. The aircraft was powered by two Tumansky I-88 engines. It was highly unusual for its time in having a turret for a rear gunner, something not seen in ground attack aircraft since the Second World War.
