New - Tu-160 Blackjack - Ту-160 - HD - High Definition Trailer

The Tupolev Tu-160 (Russian: Туполев Ту-160, NATO reporting name: Blackjack) is a supersonic, variable-geometry heavy bomber designed by the Soviet Union. It is similar in configuration to the American B-1 Lancer but is significantly larger and faster than the B-1B with a greater combat range and payload capacity. It is both the largest variable-wing and largest combat aircraft ever built.

Although several civil and military transport aircraft are bigger, the Tu-160 has the greatest total thrust, and the heaviest takeoff weight of any combat aircraft, and the highest top speed as well as one of the largest payloads of any current heavy bomber. Pilots of the Tu-160 call it the White Swan, due to its maneuverability and anti-flash white finish.

Entering service in 1987 with the 184 Guards Bomber Regiment, based at Priluki, Soviet Union, the Tu-160 was the last strategic bomber designed by the Soviet Union. The aircraft remains in production, with at least 16 currently in service with the Russian Air Force.

Amazing piece of machinery!

This thing is truly majestic, and to named The White Swan?! Freaking profound! But I'd like to call the reality of that scene into question, would just two escorts really be enough to protect a bomber that size and an accompanying AWACS plane?!.........

I hate how people are always saying that that Russia just copied the B1 Bomber when they built the TU-160. If you consider the facts that a plane capable of these speeds, this big and heavy. Variable swept wings are almost a must. Pretty much all large aircraft have their engines located in some type of nacelle. Throw in aerodynamics and an aircraft of this type will naturally take a shape like the B1 and TU-160. This besides TU-160 is nearly twice the size, speed, and takeoff weight.

What a great nation Russia

@joab302016 Peace man. I having a good time getting amazed how Russian Technologies have evolved. I am in now way trying to say a shit about Russian aircraft. I think they are as good as their western counterpart. The Mig-29 is very beautiful and the SU-30's are very impressive. Having said that I hope you will stop barking at me. I am married with two kids. I do not play with my dick. Enjoy your life and stop bullying people you do not know.

@TheVeenmeister Yeah, yeah, no one holds a candle to the Americans when it comes to saying they "always" have some sytems or weapon that "easily" surpasses or destroys whatever might be thrown at them...just like the so-called Patriot Missile from a corrupt contactor named Raytheon, that got huge live advertising during the Gulf War in 1991 as a "wonder" weapon that destroyed Iraqi scuds...in reality that crap hit nearly nothing. Great battle record of many U.S. weapons.
