    According to resources, "the US Air Force strategic reconnaissance aircraft RC-135W with tail number 62-4134 and call sign EXTOL44, flying from the Mildenhall air base in the UK, flew a long flight along the land border of the Kaliningrad Region in the afternoon in Poland." So far, we don’t have an airplane like RC-135W, although on the basis of the Il-96-400 it was possible to do Yes, and the Tu-214P is also not very sad

    Such “gifts” must be “encouraged”. For example, to bring the number of false positions, models of weapons and equipment to the level of a pre-infarction state not only among NATO generals, but also among politicians. And of course, camouflage and reserve positions need to be improved and developed.
