Russia’s making a statement and/or flexing their muscles by going for a pointless joyride in a big old plane? Look out world?

Yes, one of the strongest countries in the world and a former Superpower is out on pointless joyrides. Maybe you should call up Putin and tell him how you figured out (from the internet) his 50 years worth of Tu-95 flights were actually joyrides. :bloated:

Why would anyone worry about a nuclear bomber with the range to strike anywhere in the world and the ability to sneak up on a coastline giving a country little time to respond (if its detected) :bloated:
