This is the Tupolev copy of the North American XB-70 strategic bomber, which first flew in September, 1964. Tupolev, while being one of aviations most respected pioneers, was also known to plagiarize Western designs, like the Boeing B-29, which they back engineered and built as the TU-4. This Tupolev copy was the only one ever built, and now resides at a Russian air museum outside of Moscow.
