In a public image of Sentenel satellite from ESA, on June 4, analysts noticed a large plane on the site where Russian strategic bombers are placed. The characteristic "displaced" fuselage, created according to the integral scheme, and the wingspan of the wing up to 55. 7 meters of material, the authors of the material identified the Tu-160 board.
At the same time, there are no satellite images on June 2 and the previous couple of months of this aircraft on or any other strategic aviation boards on this database, Defense Express said. Analysts believe that the Russian Federation hid the Tu-160 in Chukotka after a successful SBU operation on June 1, when FPV-theles were brought to Russian aerodromes with trucks in specially equipped wooden containers. Such a blow to the base "Anadyr" will not interfere with the distance from Ukraine in 6.
6 thousand km, which can be overcome by a truck with drones, but the fact that there are no roads in Russia in Russia, notes in the publication. According to the authors of the article, only temporary routes for extreme expeditions on the ATVs lead to Anadir, and it can only be reached by airline or sea. In 2012, the Kolyma-Anadyr highway was launched in Russia, which was to end in 2024, but at the end of last year only 230 km of 2. 3 thousand were put into operation.
Analysts estimated that at such a rate of construction of the highway, which will be able to reach the truck, the Russians will be built only until the 1930s. In the publication, it was added that from such a distant Tu-160 base it is unlikely to be used for shelling of Ukraine, in addition, the Russian Federation rarely uses such bombers for long-range blows. The last three episodes took place on May 26, 2025, November 17, 2024 and May 18, 2023.
In addition, analysts noted that Anadyr Air Base is 500 km from the Russian border from the United States. The Security Service of Ukraine attacked 4 Russian military airfields with strategic aviation on June 1. FPV drones flew from containers that were brought in advance to the Airbase "Olenia" (Arkhangelsk region of the Russian Federation), "Belaya" (Irkutsk region), "Diagilevo" (Saratov region) and "Ivanovo" (Moscow region).
SBU Chairman Vasyl Malyuk announced the results of the web on June 2 and said that among the affected Russian aircraft were A-50, Tu-95, TU-22 M3 and Tu-160. According to the intelligence service, 34% of strategic cargage carriers were damaged or destroyed. On June 4, satellite images of the destroyed Tu-95 and TU-22 at the Belia Air Base in Russia, located 4 thousand km from Ukraine, appeared.
