The aircraft involved in the accident was a [[Russian Air Force]]-operated [[Ilyushin Il-76|Ilyushin Il-76MD]], designed by the [[Ilyushin Design Bureau]] and manufactured by the [[Tashkent Mechanical Plant|Tashkent Aviation Production Association]] in the [[Uzbek Soviet Socialist Republic]] (modern-day [[Uzbekistan]]). The Il-76 involved, registered as RA-78804, was initially made in 1989, flying for [[Soviet Air Forces]] until in 1991. The aircraft later made its way to operate with the [[Russian Air Force]] until the crash in 1996.

{{Excessive citations|section|date=April 2024}}
Carrying an official payload of {{convert|30|t|lb|abbr=out}}, the aircraft underwent refueling at [[Abakan]] before attempting takeoff. However, during the climb-out phase, the plane ascended with an unusually shallow climb angle, deviating from standard procedures. Instead of initiating a turn 4&nbsp;km from the runway at a minimum altitude of 200 m, the aircraft continued on a straight path until reaching the designated altitude. By this point, the plane was turning towards rising terrain. The aircraft collided with a hillside 14&nbsp;km beyond the runway, resulting in a fire. 23 people died instantly in impact with no survivors.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://russianplanes.net/reginfo/48656|title=Ильюшин Ил-76МД а/к Россия (СССР) - ВВС - карточка борта|trans-title= Ilyushin Il-76MD a/k Russia (USSR) - Air Force - board card |language=ru|publisher=russianplanes.net|accessdate=2014-08-18|archive-date=2014-07-04|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140704210602/http://russianplanes.net/reginfo/48656}}</ref><ref>{{Cite web |title=Катастрофа Ил-76 в районе Абакана (борт RA-78804), 27 ноября 1996 года. // AirDisaster.ru - авиационные происшествия, инциденты и авиакатастрофы военной авиации в СССР и России - факты, история, статистика |language=ru|trans-title= Il-76 crash near Abakan (aircraft RA-78804), November 27, 1996. // AirDisaster.ru - aviation accidents, incidents and military aviation crashes in the USSR and Russia - facts, history, statistics |url=http://war.airdisaster.ru/database.php?id=7 |access-date=2024-03-25 |website=war.airdisaster.ru}}</ref><ref name="AirDisaster.ru">{{cite web|url=http://www.airdisaster.ru/database.php?id=343|title=Катастрофа Ил-76 в районе Абакана (борт RA-78804), 27 ноября 1996 года.|trans-title=Il-76 crash in the Abakan area (board RA-78804), November 27, 1996 |publisher=AirDisaster.ru|language=ru|accessdate=2014-08-19|archive-date=2014-06-27|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140627154956/http://airdisaster.ru/database.php?id=343}}</ref><ref name="Ogoniok">{{cite news|url=http://ogoniok.com/archive/1996/4482/51-28-30/|title=ХРОНИКА ВЗЛЕТАЮЩЕГО ТРАНСПОРТНИКА|trans-title=Chronicle of a take-off transporter. |author=Золик Мильман|date=1996-12-22|newspaper=[[Ogoniok]]|language=ru|accessdate=2014-08-18|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20140819125447/http://ogoniok.com/archive/1996/4482/51-28-30/|archivedate=2014-08-19|url-status=dead}}</ref><ref name="Kommersant">{{cite news|url=http://www.kommersant.ru/doc/244010?stamp=634591329505056781|title=Авиакатастрофа в Абакане|trans-title=Plane crash in Abakan |author=Максим Варывдин|date=1996-11-29|publisher=[[Kommersant]]|language=ru|accessdate=2014-08-18|archive-date=2014-08-19|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140819084733/http://www.kommersant.ru/doc/244010?stamp=634591329505056781 }}</ref><ref name="Flight International">{{cite magazine|title= |magazine= Flight International |language=en |date=4–10 June 1997 |page=46}}</ref><ref name="Flight Global">{{Cite web |date=1996-12-04 |title=IL-76 hits mountain |url=https://www.flightglobal.com/il-76-hits-mountain/7376.article |access-date=2024-03-25 |website=Flight Global |language=en}}</ref><ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.delpher.nl/nl/kranten/view?&identifier=KBPERS01:003151024:mpeg21:a00090|title= Vliegtuig stort neer in Siberië |work=[[Algemeen Dagblad]] |language=nl|date=28 November 1996 |via=[[Delpher]]}}</ref>
