Re: H-6 bomber thread

I don't think the bottom pic is an H-6.

The landing gear is different.

IMO, that's the belly of a Tu-160, and that's its landing gear. Looks like a rotary cruise missile launcher. The H-6 does not have this.

Re: H-6 bomber thread

My question is how old these satellite photographs are.

China is not going to leave its latest experimental aircraft on the runway for all to see. It's probably not something very significant.

Why a big bomber like an H-6? Why not a J-7? I would love to see some pictures of that. Musta been a really bad ice jam. That happens every year here in Iowa.

My question is: does the 24 bombs help while the ice are hundreds kilometers long? Why don't they use some icebreakers instead?
