Actually, the Soviets managed to get their hands on some British heavy bombers during WW2. They were given a worn out Short Stirling for evaluation, salvaged a couple of Avro Lancasters that had crashed on Soviet territory and possibly a Handley Page Halifax.

@rotorpilot82 non linear thinking, but I think now NSA will be on your ass....at least electronically.

I love how they use the "Great Gate of Kiev" in the music background, it gives me goosebumps every time!

when he went "Krush-CHOF!", he was like "I've had enough of shits pronouncing the guy's name wrong!" lol.

@Dogmeat1950 ...on the other hand, the following appear to be unique designs, and this is just post WW2: Bear, Badger, Fagot, Fencer, Flagon, Foxbat (possibly some Vigilante influence) Fulcrum, Foxhound, Fishpot, Fitter, Frogfoot, Madge, Mallow, Mail, Forger, Flashlight, Fresco, Freestyle, Helix, Harp, Fiddler, Farmer, Blinder, Flanker, Bounder, Beagle, Fiddler, Fresco, and probably every missile except for the one copy you listed--I could go on and on with trainers, cargo, airliners, etc.

@Dogmeat1950 I must disagree. The only clear-cut unlicensed copy is the TU-4 Bull. After that, the only aviation designs that have or may have some influence include (I'll use NATO code names), the shuttle Buran, the Sukhoi PAK-FA (F-22), the Blackjack (B-1), the Fencer and Backfire (influenced by F-111), the TU-144 (Concorde), and this is a stretch, but maybe the Condor (C-5), Candid (C-141). I see no Russian copy of the C-131--please cite, and I do not think the Hokum is a copy. (continued)

Priceless!! No modern strategic bomber has ever been able to match the sheer terror caused by 3 boing 767's.. Love it!! R&D=POS

@rotorpilot82 is that some kind of sick joke?
The Russians don't have anything that competes with the F-22...but do they even need anything? No, because the cold war is over. You have been schooled, sit down son.

The Americans have nothing like the TU-95. Dumb Americans could not figure out the counter rotating props. Mp-44 looks the same as an AK-47 but they are completely different when you look at its components. That's why the AK is still around and the MP is not. For some one who is really misinformed, the concord was a Russian design sold to the French by the Russians. It was to expensive to produce and maintain. Everyone still uses Rus carrier rockets to put shit in space, the shuttle is a toy.
