Design and development

Realising that the export potential for the Tupolev Tu-104 was limited, the Council of Ministers issued directive No. 1511–846 on 12 August 1956, requiring the Tupolev Design Bureau to develop a four-engined version of the Tu-104, to enable the aircraft to safely cross large expanses of ocean, and improve safety on takeoff in case of engine failure.
The Tu-110 was a major redesign of the Tu-104, powered by four Lyulka AL-7 turbojets rated at 5,500 kgf (53.9 kN; 12,100 lbf) thrust each, with two staggered engines in the root of each extended centresection. The first prototype was flown on 11 March 1957.
Production of the Tu-110 was authorised at the Kazan Aircraft Factory, with an initial order for ten aircraft, but only three aircraft were completed before the programme was terminated. The production aircraft featured extended-chord wings and enlarged baggage holds, as well as seating for up to 100 passengers in an all-tourist class seating arrangement.
All four aircraft were converted to Tu-110Bs with Soloviev D-20 turbofan engines, in an attempt to improve the performance of the aircraft, but to no avail. No further orders were forthcoming and the four Tu-110Bs were used for experimental work on avionics, missile systems and boundary layer control systems, remaining active into the 1970s.
Variants

Ту-110 (по кодификации НАТО: Cooker — «Плита») — проектировался на основе ранее производимого пассажирского самолёта Ту-104 в КБ Туполева в 1957 году. В отличие от Ту-104, двигатели АЛ-7П с тягой по 6500 кг на самолёте Ту-110 размещались попарно в корневых частях крыла. Двигатели подвешивались не на фюзеляж, как у Ту-104, а на силовые нервюры крыла, что не только облегчало планер, но и снижало уровень шума в салоне. Центроплан крыла был значительно увеличен по размаху, была изменена его конструкция. Несколько была увеличена длина фюзеляжа. В остальном конструкция самолёта ничем не отличалась от конструкции Ту-104.Другой контент может иметь иную лицензию.
