Define "Modern".

The TU-160 is an old Soviet design - first built in 1981. Even my old school math says 38 years old. With classic Russian bad maintenance and few spares.

My question - how the hell did theese make it as far as SA? How many other TU-160s did they have to strip to get these two working?

and

The Ukrainian TU-160 fleet now looks like this

which is to say they wee chopped up. You can see even before they were cut to pieces, they had been stripped....
