Moscow plans to provide the Russian Air Force two strategic bombers—new and modernized Tu-22, Tu-95, or Tu-160 bombers—every three years, reports the Russian news and information agency. The Russian Air Force got an upgraded Tu-160 last year and will get another next month.
Army Gen. Christopher G. Cavoli, head of U.S. European Command and Supreme Allied Commander Europe, warned that Russia would remain an enduring threat to NATO and global security, regardless of the outcome of the war in Ukraine.
