Satellite imagery from April 18 shows the disposition of Russian strategic bombers at Ukrainka Air Base in the Far East. The images indicate the base housed 35 Tu-95MS (Bear-H), 6 Tu-160 (Blackjack), and 2 Il-78M (Midas) tanker aircraft. The imagery also shows that four Tu-95MS bombers were redeployed to Ukrainka from Olenya Air Base on April 16, following a combat mission.
