Footage of a flight of a long-range strategic missile carrier Tu-22M3 has appeared online. The crew was in the area of the Belaya military airbase in the Irkutsk region, the Telegram channel "Informant" reported.
In the video, you can see that a Kh-22 cruise missile is placed under the wing of the bomber.
The range of the modernized version of the Tu-22M3M with a refueling boom using the hose-cone system can reach 8000 km.
