- The US Rockwell B-1B Lancer strategic bomber and the Russian Tu-160 Blackjack look visually similar. They are both supersonic strategic bombers and missile carriers. So which of these two is more powerful??
The Rockwell B-1 Lancer commonly called the "Bone" is a supersonic variable-sweep wing, heavy bomber used by the United States Air Force. While The Tupolev Tu-160 Blackjack is a supersonic, variable-sweep wing heavy strategic bomber designed by the Tupolev Design Bureau in the Soviet Union in the 1970s and is now currently used by the Russian Air force. The Rockwell B-1 Lancer was first introduced on October 1986 while the Tu-160 entered service on April 1987. The Air Force had 62 B-1Bs in service as of 2016. While the Russian Air Force's long Range Aviation branch has at least 16 Tu-160 aircraft in service. Both the aircraft are operated by four crew: pilot, co-pilot, a navigator and an operator.

The Tu-160 "Blackjack" was the first boss on the Nintendo game, "Top Gun, The Second Mission".
Good to know! As I could never get far into that tough game! Even the landing on the carriers was a very dodgy & rough experience indeed!
The Tu-160, no question.
There is no comparison , the TU160 is the largest , fastest and biggest ordinance carrying bomber the world has ever seen , the lancer has bounced from job to job while really specialising in none
You are first trump supporter who has ever said something factual. Congratulations
Unless it can outrun a SAM, speed doesn't buy you much except increase your heat signature. Which is why US will be replacing B1 with B-21's starting in 2025.
@@Packer1290 That's also the reason for the development and production of Russian PAK DA Next Gen Stealth Bomber.
@M Don’t let your national pride get in the way of making capability assessments.. easiest way to lose wars.
Not to mention, that the B52 still carries more ordinance than the TU 160. Plus, all the aircraft's speed and size also makes it a much bigger radar target. Which also means it can't outrun a SAM or AAM and there are only 16 of them in the inventory.
Tu-160 👍
Is better 👍
The B1 can be refitted to accommodate nuclear payloads. Speed by itself is not currently the main priority. Stealth or low radar cross section avoidance. Total combined payload is the B1 because of everything that it can carry in its non-nuclear configuration. The T-160 does have a heavier basic payload and flies faster. That with it's white Skin makes it easier to track. If an actual nuclear war was to take place with another super power, the US advantage is getting in and out, not by speed, but low observability. Besides the skies being filled, it would be difficult to track a 900mph low observable aircraft designed to hug terrain for long distances. It's much easier to track a larger, more observable aircraft going mach 2. The B1 B's flying is incredible. I've seen the initial flight delivery at Dyess AFB. I've also witnessed a B1A crash. Still this aircraft will be amazing for a long time.
The similarities are so striking, there's probably an interesting spy story to tell...
No... Just a physics... this wingshape is the most effective for such kind of planes. They were designed independently, but when USSR saw B1 from USA they started hurrying up the Tupolev DB, so they have difference just a year between their introduction)

Tu 160 surpasses in all respects, in addition, it does what it was created for, there is no new B1, but it should be noted that these are completely different aircraft and different tasks.
Let's not forget that today the modernized Tu160 aircraft has become even better, outwardly it has changed little, but in terms of its characteristics and equipment, this is a completely new aircraft.
In general, I like both planes, Tu 160 and B1
You can not call it completely new plane, it is rather completely old one with some minor upgrades really.
Both Bombers Are Not Stealth types and can be detected by Air defence Radars and Stealth Fighters such as F22 RAPTOR.
Both Bombers Can carry Non Nuclear weapons such as the Huge Tall boy Earthquake Bomb that sank the Nazi then Feared Powerful Battleship Tripiz and potentially Nuclear Bombs too.
Both aircraft are outstanding and the thought that theyre both bigger then the massive B52 and Tu95 is crazy! Theyre are both massive cruise missile trucks the range of both, 👌!

White Swan
Is nato codename
Whenever it drops it's payload on the enemy,,the enemy is burned to a crisp
It’s a NATO designation it doesn’t need to make sense the point is it can be said easier in a battle and can be easily assigned to an enemy manufactured aircraft, for example they called the MiG-19 “Farmer” because it is distinct, is easy to say and starts with an F for fighter, not because it has anything to do with farming.
The Blackjack looks like the "Bone" had some cheeseburgers and put on some weight. They're both beautiful and badass airplanes.
Based on price alone it tells you that the lancer is overpriced and overhyped as is most American military hardware .
Potato it looks like your referring to China , the video was comparing two planes from Russia and America .
But just in case you was referring to Russia let me tell you that Russia is no longer communist , and also Russia has a major and I mean major R and D centers all over Russia .
White Wolf both will do serious damage , yes I agree there is no doubt about that ,
But the Russian one is only a quarter the price of the American one , this is how Russia can keep up with America .
When is the American government going to stop overpaying for its military hardware .
The B1 is still effective at blowing shit up.
@@roddychristodoulou9111 I agree it’s a lot easier to build stuff for cheaper when your weapons manufacturers are all forcibly controlled by the government instead of being privately owned businesses like in the USA who have to pay employees well and have CEO’s making big $. That’s the main reason why everything Russian is so cheap compared to us stuff. It’s like comparing made in china products vrs the USA. The china stuff is going to be cheap because labor is cheap vrs the us stuff. If the US government took control of all its military contractors and paid everyone working there next to nothing it’s stuff would be “cheaper” to produce as well.

Totally awesome comparison video. Thanks for going through the differences. Great info and great narration
Aww thanks 😊
TU-160 is better.
Tu160 is killing this puny B1 with its insane price tag. The Tu160M is stealthy as well.
B1b is something furtive tu 160 is nothing furtive
Neither of them are stealthy at all but the B1B can be argued to be low observability whereas the TU160 absolutely can not. That said, the B1B is being completely phased out in favor of the very stealthy (and also very much so existing) B21 Raider. Russia is great at making powerful engines and supermanuverable aircraft but their fly by wire, weapons systems, and radar defeating tech is still borderline Soviet Era compared to the US.
@@matrinezkevin11492 we make what is worth. There will be no unchallenged masters when we are on the look out.
Nothing is stealth in Russian radars
Right assumption in the end. Respect.
I would have to say the TU160 has the edge here....But do super sonic, variable, swept wing bombers have a role anymore?
yeah they do!
Yes, how are you going to launch 6 heavy missiles or a cruise missile otherwise
Nice
Ту160 по всем параметрам лучше
"All parameters are better" Translation
The B-1B has a lower top speed because its role was changed to a low-altitude supersonic penetrator. It's be more fair to compare the Tu-160's top speed at similar altitude.
I'll take 62 B-1s over 16 TU-160s any day
Seller: what would you like? I have rather good b2.
Buyer: mmm... I don't have much money... maybe you h something more cheap?... ;)
B1-b is comparable but slightly inferior to TU-22M.
TU160 is in it's own class.
Thanks for an non-propaganda video!
I don't know,
they both look cool
TU160 really look like a white swan
The Buzz. Why are you afraid to admit that TU-160 is way better than B-1.
Well, the Tu-160 is better, the weaponry is almost the same, the Tu had range, speed, & durability
B1 not Nuclear potential
Tupolev 22 m3m vs b1 b Lancer .
why is B1B still called supersonic strategic bomber, it is now subsonic at .98 mach.

This entire video essentially totally plagiarized the wikipedia article on the Tu-160. And I know this because I was reading its article while listening to this video
No shit Sherlock , yeha she should have pulled out the top secret files from pentagon for information in this video 🤡
If Tu 160 is 7 mil, I want to buy one
Which one can get closer to its target before it is seen on radar? Not much comparison there
You are wrong. Tu160 is stealth as well as B1. In any case flying to 20000 meters nothing is useful to hit the TU160. The same for the B1 I guess
@@parapam4717 No, I am not wrong. B-1 radar cross section is a fraction of the TU-160’s. B-1 also employs electronic countermeasures that the TU-160 does not. This information is easy to come by.
That may not matter, though. The TU-160 primarily carries long-range cruise missiles that it can launch without having to penetrate enemy airspace, so stealth is not a priority. One of the B-1’s missions is to be able to penetrate enemy defenses, so it is designed to be more stealthy.
For what it’s worth, there are a number of countries that have missiles capable of shooting down a target going Mach 2 at 20,000 meters.
Um, how many airworthy TU-160M’s are in service now?

Funny how the average observers in the West often cut the Soviet a slack when assessing their weapon system's ingenuity despite the persistent copying and "borrowing" by the Soviets of ideas, concepts, even the specific designs that originated in the West. The extraordinary extent the Soviet espionage infiltrated Western arms industry has been well documented and the stolen data's substantial contribution to their own designs well confirmed. It's a tenacious and fruitful endeavor spanning 7 decades - far more extensive, comprehensive and penetrative by several orders of magnitude than, say, the Chinese espionage that only perks up in recent two decades. Still, there is often the ready-and-willing granting by Westerners of the benefit-of-doubt when it comes to design similarities, whereby observers tend to enthusiastically propound, without even the prompting from the Soviets themselves, that the similarity based on outward appearance may be artificial, as it belies the underlying functionalities that could potentially be quite different.
In contrast, little such benefit of doubt is given to the Chinese weapon systems, however, where almost every class of plane, tank, ship, etc. is dismissively written off as nothing but a cheap "carbon copies" of a supposed "original ones" that often times don't even remotely look the same (e.g. J-20 being a "copy" of F-22).
Just imagine that Tu-160 were a Chinese bomber. The same degree of the visual similarity between Tu-160 and B-1 would have been sufficient for 99% of the commentators here to instantly pronounce a confident verdict that Tu-160 is obviously a Chinese knock-off of B-1🤭🤭🤭🤗
Not that the Chinese get to complain about "bias", as they deserve little sympathy so long as they keep plagiarizing foreign designs despite some genuinely impressive progresses in their own industry. *The interesting thing is the Soviets had been doing exactly the same (i.e. Stealing/copying and innovating/groundbreaking at the same time), at a scale that way dwarves that of the Chinese, yet they aren't subjected to the same stereotype.* Are the Soviet less Communist, less authoritarian, less oppressive, or less in any attributes that give the Chinese a bad rep? If they are equally "bad" (with the Soviets arguably being far worse in so many aspects), what justifies the double standard? Maybe simply because the Soviets are White & European, thus inherently more worthy of high esteem than the slant-eyed bastards who are nothing but Yellow Peril?
The difference between the maneuvering between the Tu-160 and the B-1 is the B-1 is better on the maneuverability because of the wing span.

It's interesting that you use graphs to show how the planes compare, but stop when talking about payload - the place the B-1B outperforms the Tu-160. You're certainly right that they're used for very different purposes. The B-1 can fly near the speed of sound at sea level in terrain-following mode to evade enemy radar, whereas the Tu-160 only flies operationally at high altitude. The B-1 can also fuel in flight, so its shorter range is not an issue.
Yeah this was a pretty shit comparison. also the B1b is better compared to the Tu-22 not the Tu160
