Putin Breaks Sound Barrier
Russian President Vladimir Putin flew onboard a Tu-160 strategic bomber to a war game. The bomber broke the sound barrier enroute.
The bomber and an accompanying Tu-160 then fired a cruise missile each. The plane also flew a low-level pass 200 meters above ground at a speed of 900 kilometers per hour.
Putin sat in the commander's seat while being flown by Anatoly Zhikharev. Putin's Tu-160 was also refuelled in midair.
