Russian TU-160 escapes pursuit of US f-35

Hsmilitarycom: Russian strategic Tu-160s escaped the pursuit of American F-35s at supersonic speed.

The pursuit of American F-35 fighters behind a group of Russian strategic bombers Tu-160 "White Swan" forced Russian military pilots to "drop" their pursuers, accelerating to a speed equal to almost two speeds of sound, which in just a few seconds left American fifth-generation combat aircraft far behind.

According to the data provided by the information channel, during one of the training flights, Russian strategic bombers managed to accelerate to a speed of 1,84 MAX, while the maximum speed of the American F-35 fighter is 1,6 MAX, which allowed Russian aircraft to literally a few seconds to increase the lead from the F-35 to one and a half kilometers.
