The TU-95 is an old design but the airframes are fairly new.

They are dangerous to us when they have to fly over the North Pole to probe our airspace. On our doorstep, the potential is truly menacing.

Ronald Reagan warned the Soviets not to base MiG-23 fighters in Cuba (they blinked). Now, their main strategic bombers will be sitting on the Cuban unsinkable aircraft carrier.

I mean, geez, Jimmah Carter was in office nearly three years before the Soviets invaded Afghanistan. Apparently Moscow now feels they need not wait as long to act aggressively. Wonder why.
