History of the aircraft:
The Tupolev Tu-22 (NATO reporting name: Blinder) was the first supersonicbomber to enter production in the Soviet Union. Manufactured by Tupolev, the Tu-22 entered service with the Soviet military in the 1960s. The last examples were retired during the 1990s. Produced in comparatively small numbers, the aircraft was a disappointment, lacking the intercontinental range that had been expected. Later in their service life, Tu-22s were used as launch platforms for the Soviet Kh-22 standoff missile, and as reconnaissance aircraft. Tu-22s were sold to other nations, including Libyaand Iraq. The Tu-22 was one of the few Soviet bombers to see combat; Libyan Tu-22s were used against Tanzania and Chad, and Iraqi Tu-22s were used during the Iran–Iraq War.

    This is a good plane but it was jumped violently and rapidly when it reached a speed of 200 knots.

    Well, the model is quite controversial. It's really good in terms of design, detail and effort, but it is so much out of scale, proportions and form...
