>Russia has transferred two Tu-160 heavy strategic bombers (NATO reporting name: Blackjack) to the remote Anadyr air base, which can be seen in satellite images.
>Russia may betrying to hide its valuable bombers from possible attacks by Ukrainian drones. This could be an effective place to hide these aircraft, because the peculiarity of the Anadyr airbase is that a truck with drones cannot reach it due to the lack of an access road.
>It is noted that recently, Russians have begun to more actively use this type of aircraft to strike Ukraine. In particular, from 2023 to the beginning of May of this year, only two cases were known when Russian strategic Tu-160 bombers were involved in carrying out attacks on Ukraine. At the same time, since the end of May of this year, the Russians have already taken their Tu-160s into the air twice to carry out strikes on Ukraine, in particular on May 25 and June 6 of this year.
Normally I'd suggest this is from US/Russia tension but that seems unlikely given the current administration. Of course I have to ask: strategic/tactical implications?
