What are the main performance parameters of the former Soviet Union's Tu-95 "Bear" bomber?

Figure-95 bomber NATO code-named "Bear" is a large four-turboprop engine long-range strategic bomber, air-launched missile launch platform, maritime reconnaissance aircraft and military passenger aircraft developed by the Soviet Tupolev Design Bureau.

The propeller bomber plans to serve for another 20 years. The Tu-95 strategic bomber was developed by the Tupolev Design Bureau of the Soviet Union, with the NATO code name "Bear". The development began in the 1950s. The first prototype was tested for the first time in 1954, and the first batch of production models began in 1956. Delivered for use.

Figure-95 The fuselage of the bomber is a semi-hard-shell all-metal structure with a round cross-section. There are transparent hoods, radar cabins, pilot cabins and cockpits in the front section of the fuselage. The later improved model canceled the transparent hood and replaced it with a large fire control radar. The landing gear is front three-point, and the front landing gear has two wheels, which are installed side by side.

What is the difference between Figure 95 bomber and Figure 160?What is the difference

1. Figure 160M and Figure 95MS two long-range strategic bombers, Figure 160M2 has a higher relative positioning and more advanced technology. It is a jet bomber, and the latter figure 95M is a propeller aircraft. The technology is relatively backward and the research and development is early.

2. Tu-160 has unique subsonic, supersonic and low-altitude flight capabilities. When carrying out various strike missions in nuclear war, it is more flexible, adaptable and combat stability. The Tu-22M3 long-range bomber was developed within the framework of the concept of curbing the threat of war and large-scale regional conflicts.

3. It's far from 95, and Russia often uses them to fly around Japan... Figure 22 and Figure 22M (the two look very different, and now they are generally equipped with M) are supersonic and fast.

4. The Tu-160 bomber is an important air bombing force for Russia.

5. China's Boom 6 series bomber is the domestic version of the imitation of Figure 16. Now the latest modification is still in service in China. However, the subsequent development model (Figure 22, Figure 160), entered the supersonic era, and the high performance of turbine engines had to be brought into play.

6. Figure-160 has an amazing fuselage size, with a wingspan of up to 59 meters and four powerful Kuznetso NK-32 turbojet engines with a thrust of 55,000 pounds, which is also one of the most powerful engines in bombers.

Russia-95 war bombing landing in HangzhouThree signals were revealed to the public

It snowed in Hangzhou in early winter. Suddenly, a roar with great pressure accompanied by snowflakes "breaking into" the sky over Hangzhou. It turned out that the Tu-95MS strategic bomber of the Russian Air Force landed at Hangzhou Liqiao Airport. Of course, not only the Tu-95MS, but also the Boom-6K of the People's Liberation Army Air Force also landed at the Russian airport.

In March 2020, Russia's Tu-95 bombers repeatedly made Japanese warplanes maintain a high degree of vigilance in Japanese airspace, but Japan has always been in a temporary situation to deal with it, and it is really helpless about the arrival of Tu-95.

Tu-95 was heavily in service in the Soviet Air Force and the Soviet Naval Air Force during the Cold War. The model used by the Soviet Naval Air Force was renamed Tu-142.

Why doesn't Russia eliminate the Tu-95 propeller bomber?

Year, when the first TU95 strategic bomber was delivered to the Soviet Air Force, I'm afraid no one thought that such a four-engine propeller-powered bomber could maintain such a lasting vitality.

Figure-95 bomber has a long range and can meet a variety of strategic mission requirements. But its flight speed is so slow that it is not suitable for flying at an altitude below 3,000 meters. Therefore, when air defense technology continues to improve, Tu-95 can only attack targets without air defense forces, or use electronic jamming equipment to sneak attacks at night, or launch long-range missiles outside the defense zone.

From a historical perspective, from the Soviet Air Force to the present Russian Air Force, many aircraft models have been replaced, and only the bombers still use Tu-95 has not changed; there are several reasons for its "longevity": one is because its volume and air retention capacity form a variety of different functions.

The propeller aircraft has not been completely retired. The Russian strategic bomber Tu-95 still uses this method, but the engine and technology are different.Helicopters can also be regarded as alternative propeller aircraft, which are still important military equipment. In addition, traditional old-fashioned propeller aircraft are still used in the field of entertainment and flight enthusiasts.

Figure-95 has many uses. In addition to being used as a strategic bomber, it also serves as an air-launched missile launch platform, a maritime reconnaissance aircraft, and a military passenger aircraft. It is the only large quad-turboprop engine rear-swing long-range strategic bomber in service in the world.

Of course, such an aircraft with propellers can achieve high speed. In addition to having special equipment in terms of power, it is also very different in terms of range. Because it is necessary to achieve long-distance combat, there are certain requirements for the range of the aircraft.

Russia has upgraded the Tu-95 strategic bomber. What has changed compared with before?

In 2013, the Russian Air Force began to upgrade some of the in-service Tu-95MS to Tu-95MSM. This upgrade mainly replaces the avionics of the aircraft, while the fuselage and engine remain unchanged.

The fuselage of the Figure-95 bomber is a semi-hard-shell all-metal structure, with a circular cross-section, consisting of the front part of the fuselage, the middle section and the tail section of the fuselage, which is basically the same as the fuselage arrangement of Figure-16. There are transparent hoods, radar cabins, pilot cabins and cockpits in the front section. The later improved model canceled the transparent hood and replaced it with a large fire control radar.

Figure-95 bomber has a long range and can meet a variety of strategic mission requirements. But its flight speed is so slow that it is not suitable for flying at an altitude below 3,000 meters.Therefore, when air defense technology continues to improve, Tu-95 can only attack targets without air defense forces, or use electronic jamming equipment to sneak attacks at night, or launch long-range missiles outside the defense zone.

Differies in the engine, Figure-95 adopts 4 NK-12 turboprop engines, each of which drives two large-diameter inversion four-blade propellers and four Kuznetsov NK-321 turbofan engines under the wings of the Figure-160.

Figure 95 The new bomber appears. From a global perspective, the construction of stealth bombers by the U.S. military has always been at the forefront of the world. For example, the B-2 bomber launched by it and the U.S. military is even more invincible in this field.

There is a fuel tank in the fuselage of the Tu-95 bomber, and there is also a fuel tank on the wing. The two together canTo carry 74,000 kilograms of fuel, this is also for the plane to fly in the air for a long time without dropping and refueling when there is no fuel.

Russia-Tu-95VS American B-52

Russia's strategic bombers are composed of Tu-9 Tu-22M and Tu-160, which are all products developed by the Soviets and the products of the arms race with the United States. The Tu-95 bomber is nicknamed "Bear" and is the U.S. B-52 bomber, which can carry out intercontinental bombing missions.

The B-52 strategic bomber is 48 meters long, with a wingspan of 56 meters, a maximum take-off weight of 220 tons, a maximum range of 16,000 kilometers, and a maximum flight speed of about 0.8 Mach.

In terms of range, b52 is better than Figure 95.Looking at the ammunition capacity, the maximum ammunition capacity of Figure 95 is 25 tons, and the maximum ammunition capacity of b52 is 31 tons. In terms of internal hanging, b52 is still better than Figure 95. Finally, I came to a conclusion that b52 is better than Figure 95. If b52 is 10 points, then Figure 95 is 6 points.

The number of engines directly determines the load and range of a bomber. The B-52 of the United States uses 8 engines, the Tu-95 of Russia uses 4 engines, and the Boom-6 uses only 2 engines. And the number of engines cannot be changed, because increasing the number of engines is equivalent to moving a knife on the basic frame of Boom-6.

The famous Tu-95 is a large strategic bomber from Russia, but compared with the B-52 of the United States in the same frame, it is found that the waist circumference is still a lot smaller.
