Exactly the same age, just the turboprop design of the tu95 makes it look more antiquated.

Yeah, but they're launching missiles way inside Russia. No defence around. Except their own which tbh has done a good job of downing their own.

It's an old cold war plane, but it's just a platform to launch modern weapons, the US still fly B52's, just as old, we are using Boeing RC-135 planes for intelligence, which is based on the old Boeing 707, and is 60+ years old.Is that not a really old plane? How the fuck is this backwater a so called superpower.
I dont know how old they are mate.Is that not a really old plane? How the fuck is this backwater a so called superpower.
TU-95 launch zone is Caspian Sea area.
So,if they was targeting,let say Kherson.....thats about 1000km-1300km.
Dont think Ukraine have anything to shoot them down at that distance.
Slava Ukraini.

It's all they have.So, are the crazy Ivan’s using their old tanks, planes etc because they have to or because they are holding the good stuff in reserve? Again, they have history of this.
Indeed, what liberating army blows up dams.It's all they have.
