Hello everybody! Are you sure that this is exact site of Russian heavy bombers. I haven't seen any aircraft. Taking into consideration that Tu-95 and Tu-160 are quite large mashines, it is not so easy to hide them.
I know that staff of heavy bombers army is located in Engels city, but exact place of airplanes parking may differ.
What do you guess?

Here not when were not based Tu-160 and Tu-95.
