Episode 182.The Tu-22M3M: Carrier Killer

Russia is testing a new strategic missile-carrying Tu-22M3Maicraft. An upgraded version of the smallest long-range aircraft, capable of carrying the largest air missile. Abroad it is called Aircraft Carrier Killer for its size, flight speed and warhead power. Combat Approved had the opportunity to see the construction of the missile carrier at the aircraft factory in Kazan. And its first test flights. See in the program why the country needs the Tu-22M3M, its capabilities and what place it will take in the nuclear triad.

Tu22 is a different aircraft. NATO called it "Blinder". And it was a hopeless aircraft. The aircraft from the video is Tu-22M3M (a variant of Tu-22M). NATO called it "Backfire", and it was the only bomber which scared the shit out of NATO countries. Tu22 and Tu22M are totally different bombers.

I believe the M suffix is used to denote that an upgrade or modification of some kind has been performed. I see it a lot in the way Russia discusses their military technology. They have a habit of progressively augmenting and modifying equipment and never really taking anything much out of service. Lots of useful little toys left in storage in case they need them.

[@barmherzigsein3259]

Herr Brown, I respect your right and freedom to raise childish criticisms of this excellent report. Yes, our stealth bomber is 20 years or more ahead of Russian technologies. However, this aircraft, carrying their hypersonic missiles, could sink one of our aircraft carriers. That makes this aircraft, it’s kinetic weapons, and it’s non-kinetic weapons a serious threat. Don’t you think? And at a tiny fraction of the cost of our B-1‘s and B-2‘s, not to mention the other stealth bomber we’ve had deployed for almost a decade already. There is an adage in the Noble German Language of my ancestors (on my Dad’s side) that translates something like this: • Dummheit nährt Feindschaft, aber Weisheit bewacht die Familie eines Feindin. Translated into English (a language DERIVED FROM the German language): • Foolishness nurtures enmity (Feindschaft), but Wisdom guards an adversary’s family. Point is: Frieden/Peace is Always the way to go with adversaries willing to negotiate (which Russia IS willing to do). We are better able to defend our Great Nation (yes; I’m talking about the United States of America) by being polite, listening, and respecting a very powerful, very intelligent, very resourceful, potential ally such as modern day Russia. And don’t retort with grade school propaganda about „poor poor Navalny“ while we force Great Britain to incarcerate Julian Assange under dubious charges of „espionage“, usw, usf… Imagine the advancements in the sciences, engineering, maths, usw, usf, if we actively tried to work with modern Russia instead of unilaterally violating important treaties, abrogating the commitments President Reagan made to Chairman Gorbachev regarding NOT expanding NATO east of Germany, blah, blah, blah…. Leb wohl (Goodbye). Salomè (Live in Peace), und… Mögest du immer in der Wahrheit, Liebe, Frieden und SEIN der Schöpfung leben.

[@TheLAGopher]

The most cost effective response to the upgraded TU-22 is upgrading the US B-52 with new engines,avionics,and hypersonic weapons (which were just successfully tested from the B-52) of its own. The B-1 and B-2 should be retired by the end of the decade to be replaced by 75 upgraded B-52s with stand off missiles, and 100 plus B-21 Raider (a massively upgraded B-2) stealth bombers armed with cruise missiles or gravity bombs.

The pilot job of strategic bombers is to safely bring her to the assigned mission location while being escorted by fighter jets. Once the specific range is reached, the weapons bay are opened and missiles are released. And the pilot job ends there. The mission will be automatically loaded to the missiles in mid air. Some of the desired targets are preloaded. If the missile is promised as per manufacturer standards, then it should fulfilled the task which it is designed for.

The American CWIS is good at shooting down subsonic cruise missiles, has a very poor chance against supersonic anti-ship missiles, and has virtually no chance against new Russian hypersonic missiles. The higher the missile speed, the less time it takes to destroy it. The response speed of the American CWIS is simply not sufficient. The United States has not upgraded its CWIS since the Cold War.
