Hope no one was hurt.

That said — I’m glad another Russian bomber is gone.

With the oil price heading down, now slightly over $40/bbl, the chest-beating Putin can ill afford to lose these sorts of assets.

Putin’s conventional military is a dubious force.

Ivan has only at most 65 Bears still operating. At the rate they are falling from the skies they will exhaust their inventory in a few years.

The Russkies need to retire those noisy old beasts. (Although I’m undoubtedly in a minority, I think the TU-95 is a beautiful airplane.)
