A Robo Chojin (ロボ超人, Cyborg Superman) from Russia. With his Aircraft Genetic (飛行機遺伝子) he has the ability to transform into various types of aircraft during battle. This ability also allows him to fly. Vladimir Putin is shown to be a big fan of his, personally arriving to support him during Chojin Olympics: The Resurrection. During the final preliminary, the Three Legged Race, he was paired with Meat Alexandria. Meat would later save him from crashing into the ground and receiving a career-ending injury after his loss to Kevin Mask. Because of this, he is closer to Meat than he is any other character.
During his first appearance he is portrayed as a merciless Zangyaku Chojin who kills many chojin, but he reappears during the Demon Seed Arc as an Idol Chojin. From then on he is always with Mantaro Kinniku and the others as one of the Seigi Chojin.

Story
Choujin Olympics: The Resurrection
Ilioukhine makes his first appearance in this arc, as a Choujin fighting to win. He is first seen taking down another Choujin during the Russian Qualifying Rounds, and becoming Russia's champion. During the second preliminary round, Ilioukhine is racing against Mad Penguin (Seiuchin in the anime) and Power Command Joe in a Beach Flags type race, the goal is rescuing a falling damsel. Transforming into an airplane, Ilioukhine decapitates Mad Penguin, and slices Power Command Joe in half with his sharp plane wings. As he reaches the goal, he transforms into his humanoid form and catches the damsel, advancing to the next round.
In this last round of the Choujin preliminaries, Ilioukhine takes part in a three-legged race, his partner being Meat Alexandria. Ilioukhine, satisfied about his partner and confident about this race, speedily runs through the race, without any sort of struggle, thanks to advice coming from Meat. Halfway through the race Ilioukhine gets in a quick fight against Jade, but ends in a draw, due to the amount of time they have in finishing the race. Ilioukhine and Meat finish the race, coming in second place.
During the Poison Six Pack arc (taking place in between the preliminary rounds and the tournament), Ilioukhine is seen at the beginning of the arc, during a celebration for the Choujin Olympics finalists, and being announced as one of the finalists who will be fighting in the tournament.
Demon Seed Arc
Ilioukhine reappears as an Idol Choujin during the Demon Seed Arc and fights Meltdown in a special ring suspended above the boiling pot. Meltdown has the ability to transform into a motorbike, similar to Ilioukhine's Aircraft Genetic. He torments Ilioukhine with psychological warfare by constantly threatening to drop Meat's left arm into the pot. Furthermore, he learns all of Ilioukhine's weaknesses with his Choujin Navigation technique. Eventually, Ilioukhine gains the advantage and defeats Meltdown with The Turbulance. Unfortunately, the ring then collapses and they both fall to their deaths.
Ilioukhine is later seen with the other fallen Idol Choujins during the final showdown with Reborn Ashuraman, helping Mantaro climb back into the ring. He and the other fallen Idol's are later revived by the Reborn Diamond.
Ultimate Choujin Tag Arc
Ilioukhine is one of the Time Warp 8 and travels back in time to the days of the Legends (right after the Dream Choujin Tag Arc conclusion) in order to save Robin Mask from being killed and, by extension, Kevin Mask from being erased from time. During the construction of the time ship he is part of Team 1, who are to retrieve the Tokyo Jumbo Sight for the body of the ship.
When the Ultimate Choujin Tag Tournament is announced, he teams up with Barrierfreeman to form Fireball Flying Fogey Squad (火の玉・飛爺隊, Hinotama: Hijiitai). During the preliminary Battle Royal they confront the Five Disasters. Although the Five Disasters easily dominate them and move on to other opponents, Ilioukhine and Barrierfreeman come back and momentarily incapacitate them with the Carnal Desire Payment Bell Toll. When they see that Mantaro is about to be taken out by Neptuneman and Seiuchin's Optical Fiber Cross Bomber, they immediately perform their Tokko Attack and shove Mantaro out of the way. As result, they become the victims of the Optical Fiber Cross Bomber and the skin on their faces is peeled off.
After the Battle Royal is over, the rest of the New Generation (as well as Chaos and Robin Mask) find Ilioukhine's black box and hear Fireball Flying Fogey Squad's final farewell. Later, during the reserve match between The Choppers' (Geronimo and Brocken Jr.) and the Five Disasters, the spirits of Ilioukhine and Barrierfreeman arrive to support Geronimo, giving him the Friendship Power he needed to perform his Apache Death Scream and destroy Thunder's "Legend" Destruction Bell.
Name Origin
Ilioukhine's name comes from two sources. The official English spelling of his name (according to a Kinnikuman Information book written by Yudetamago) comes from Sambo Fighter Mikhail Ilyukhin, while the katakana for his name (イリューヒン) resembles the katakana for the Ilyushin aircraft manufacturer company (イリューシン).
