In the past, this aircraft has also been described as the Tu-26, because it has virtually nothing in common with the Tu-22 "Blinder". The Tu-22M is a big jet bomber with a variable geometry wing. It is used as cruise missile carrier and naval patrol aircraft. Despite its size, Backfire has D-shaped or rectangular (C version) wing root intakes, just like a fighter. About 240 are now assumed to be in service. Upgrades are planned, because a replacement will probably not be available.
