Russian aircraft builders are modernizing Tu-22M3 bombers

The Tu-22M3 bomber fleet is planned to be completely renewed by 2018.

According to the information provided by the Avia.pro portal, domestic specialists are currently very actively involved in the process of modernizing Russian Tu-22M3 bombers. In fact, the new aircraft will receive an improved engine, modern electronic systems and new weapons, which in turn will increase their combat qualities and make their use more effective.

The new modification of the bombers was named Tu-22M3M, and will soon take up combat duty.

It should be clarified that these combat aircraft have proven themselves perfectly during special operations in Syria against the Islamic State terrorist group, whose activities are officially prohibited on the territory of the Russian Federation and in a number of other countries.
