The Tupolev Tu-160 (NATO reporting name: Blackjack or “White Swan“ in Russia) is a supersonic, variable-sweep wing heavy strategic bomber and airborne missile platform designed by the Tupolev Design Bureau in the Soviet Union in the 1970s. It is the largest and heaviest Mach 2 supersonic military aircraft ever built and second to the experimental XB-70 Valkyrie in overall length and top speed. As of 2023, it is the largest and heaviest combat aircraft, the fastest bomber in use and the largest and heaviest variable-sweep wing airplane ever flown. For some who noticed, in the edit I replaced the code-name “Blackjack with “White Swan“ because it fits more ;) My tag: ItsEricTheDude#4330
