Russian Nuclear Bomber — Tupolev TU 95
The Tupolev Tu-95 (Russian: Туполев Ту-95; NATO reporting name: «Bear») is a large, four-engine turboprop-powered strategic bomber and missile platform. First flown in 1952, the Tu-95 entered service with the Soviet Union in 1956 and is expected to serve the Russian Air Force until at least 2040. A development of the bomber for maritime patrol is designated Tu-142, while a passenger airliner derivative was called Tu-114.
The aircraft has four Kuznetsov NK-12 engines, each driving contra-rotating propellers. It is the only propeller-powered strategic bomber still in operational use today. The tips of the propeller-blades move faster than the speed of sound, making it one of the noisiest military aircraft. Its distinctive swept-back wings are at a 35° angle.
The turboprop-powered Tu-95 Bear strategic bomber entered service in 1956 and remains an important part of Russia's long range air power.
The current bomber/missile carrier version is the Tu-95MS Bear-H. This entered service in 1984 and was manufactured until 1992. There are two subvariants, both based on the maritime Tu-142. The Tu-95MS16 Bear-H16 carries 16 long-range air-launched cruise missiles (six internally and ten externally). The Tu-95MS6 Bear-H6 is the more numerous version, with provision for external missile carriage deleted in accordance with the SALT/START treaties. About 60 Tu-95s of both variants are based with heavy bomber regiments at Engels and Ukrainka. This total includes three aircraft formerly held in Ukraine.
Russia plans to add the Kh-101 air-launched cruise missiles and Kh-SD air-to-surface missiles to the inventory of the Tu-95MS to improve their conventional long-range precision strike capability.
The air force also operates 11 earlier-model Tu-95KUs as trainers.
The Tu-142 Bear-F was designed primarily for anti-submarine warfare and a variety of naval roles. Around 40 examples equip a single Russian naval aviation regiment at Kipelovo, assigned to the Northern Fleet. The major anti-submarine warfare variants are the Tu-142MK Bear-F Mod 3 and improved Tu-142M-Z Bear-F Mod 4, the last of which was completed in 1994. The Tu-142MR Bear-J is a command post/communications relay platform for communicating with submerged nuclear-missile armed submarines. Such is the importance of the Tu-142 in Russian service, that surviving Bear-F Mod 4 airframes are likely to be updated with Leninets Sea Dragon system, which includes a new radar, low-light-level TV, forward-looking infra-red, new sonobuoys, revised electronic surveillance measures and magnetic anomaly detection (MAD) systems, and an armament of up to eight Kh-35 (AS-20 Kayak) anti-ship missiles for an extended ASV/ASW role.
The only Tu-142 export operator is the Indian navy which has seven Tu-142 MK-Es at Arrakonam. These are broadly similar to the Bear-F Mod 3, but have certain downgraded systems.

Loudest turbos in the world? Torpedo Boat T56 5000hp Dieselpower [HQ]
A short summery with adventures from this summer with the Swedish Motor Torpedo Boat T56!
The motor torpedo-boat T56 was built in 1957 in a dockyard in Stockholm. T56 is part of the T42 series that comprises T42 through T56. The main supplier was the Kockums Company in Malmoe, although four ships in the series were built at the Stockholm’s Oerlogsvarv (the naval dockyard in Stockholm).
T56 was in the service of the Royal Swedish Navy until 1973 and was discarded in 1984 and then sold to a private person.
Since December 2003 T56 is owned by the Stiftelsen Motortorpedbaaten T56 (a Trust organisation) and has returned to previous home port 25 kilometres south of Stockholm at the former marine base Gaaloe. The aim of the trust is to keep the ship in its original shape and to distribute knowledge about the historical role of the motor torpedo-boat.
The motor torpedo-boat T56 has the following main characteristics:
· Hull: V-formed bottom
· Over-all length: 23 meters
· Over-all width: 5.9 meters
· Draft: 1.5 meters
· Displacement: 43 tons
· Motors: 3 CRM 18D/SS (+1650hp/each)
· Speed: 50 knots
· Crew: 16 persons
· Weapons:
— 2 torpedoes, 53 centimetres
— 1 canon, Bofors 40 millimetres, model m/36
— 2 machine guns, model m/36
— 57 millimetres flare and chaff rockets
· Radar: PS 631
