Russia’s Bombers: Still Kicking, Just Loaded Like Overstuffed Suitcases
Russia’s strategic bombers keep trying to bite Ukraine, despite Operation Spiderweb’s drone shenanigans that 'damaged what it said was at least a third of Russia’s bomber fleet.'

Replacement plans? Minimal, because Russia stopped producing some models years ago. Resilience or desperate stuffing? You decide.
