Hot Take: Strategic Bombers are obsolete!!
#USAF & #Indianairforce engaged in #Copeindia2023 & the former bought #B1B and are making #B21. The #Chinese are building new H-6Ks. The #Russians are building new #Tu160. You ask, #εpsilon why do you think bombers are obsolete? Image
Coz, in a peer conflict, none of these will be used as strategic bombers as that role is behind them. These will be used as #Cruisemissile carriers that will never do old school bombing until all enemy AD is down. Pic credits: #Indianairforce Image
Look at #Russians for eg. In #Syria, they used #Tu22M as old school bombers as the AD threat was very low. In #Ukraine, these are launching missiles from well inside #Russian and #Belarussian territories. Image

Come on #America, this is an ideal case of Harassment.🙄 U should sue #Russia for harassing ur #MQ9 with their manly #Su27. Lil MQ9 was innocently flying close to SEVASTOPOL (a base for which Russians hd annexed whole island of Crimea). Seriously, what wr the yanks thinking? 😃 Image
Nasty Roosies I tell ya. 😄 This is probably the funniest squabble between US and Russia.
Technically Crimea is not an island, yes I agree. :)
