Tupolev Tu-22M Backfire

One of the advantages of bombers not from the 1950s (Tu-95, B-52) is crew gets a chance to leave them when things go wrong.

The B-52 does have ejection-seats.

Another incredible example of bias blinded posts here. Its almost as if ejection isn’t always possible during low altitude crashes. Heres your very modern ultra super sophisticated Tu-22M turning into a skid mark despite having ejection seats.

The frequent disregard for simple facts is becoming irritating. Its increasingly starting to mirror twitter. Comparing the recent Tu-22M failure which occurred well over 1000m AGL to the B-52 crash which occurred just on takeoff is bad faith. And then chocking it up to a supposed age issue of not having ejection seats (a google search will show it does) is all so interesting.
