Don't confuse range with duration! .. 20t.km. in 25 hours! And how much did they overcome in 40 hours ??!?

I forgot to add - the copy is worse than the original. Even scaled.

Yuri, what a demagoguery islovobludie. No logic. More speed, weight, load, etc. How does this prevent you from reaching a record flight duration? On the contrary, I think it's easier to fly longer on a large plane.
I think that is not the point. And in the uncomfortable conditions of a long flight for pilots, the technological level of the aircraft, especially electronics and engines, is low in comparison with B1. As well as other sites requiring frequent maintenance on the ground.

There is no answer and it is unlikely to be.

So Tu-160 is also from the Stone Age, an ordinary old rusty barn

I fully support the comment! It is inadmissible to compare the Tu-160 and B-52.

YES, only he overcame 9 thousand kilometers. And ANT 25 was not a bomber. Only all the same 67 hours of flight around the world from the Americans. 2005 Virgin Voyager.

And what distance did the B-2 Spirit cover in 2001 in 44 hours and the B-52 in 1957 in 45 hours ???

But what about our Yuri Gagarin, who did not fly anywhere?

It's good at least they didn't remember about the Derijables. The duration of their flight Tu-160 was never dreamed of.

The Americans flew the B-52 to the moon.

Chkalov flew 63 hours

Unfortunately, media representatives and politicians from the United States have a serious pedagogical error, as a neurotic parent, comparing the uniqueness of their child with other children, may be shocked by the unnoticed successes of others. I propose to make efforts and learn to be FRIENDLY, and not to compete with the arms race under the pressure of INTERESTS of private military companies, but to start using the MORALS of international diplomacy. It is safer for you and your children! ;)

Yuri, respect! Comparing a kite to an albatross is inappropriate and just stupid

To be honest, I have not found anywhere in open sources the statements of officials of the RF Ministry of Defense that the Tu-160 set a world record. Only the media speaks about this. But, if the Americans decided to brag about their achievements, let it be well then it is worth saying that the Tu-160 has achieved them. Those who compare the Tu-160 and B1V are people who are not quite versed in aviation, in fact, these are two different aircraft, in many ways different. The Tu-160 is almost 60 tons heavier, has a maximum speed of almost 900 km / h more, the combat load is 10 tons more, the combat radius (without refueling, of course) is 1800 km more, and most importantly, the Tu-160 is a strategic missile carrier, a carrier long-range cruise missiles, B1B is only a bomber, a carrier of short-range missiles of 160 km. Therefore, the Tu-160 is a record holder in its class, moreover, we still do not know at what speeds the flight was made. When the Americans put into service such an aircraft, then let them compare.
