here are suggestions that 50 M2's will be produced at 3>4 per year. Will the Tu-160 although less numerous become Russia's long standing stalwart in the same way as the B-52 is to the US?
Woohoo! Scarey, innit.
At that rate it will take them 215 years to make as many Blackjacks as B52s that have already been made.
"Bomber gap", anyone?
