1200 pix This is a supersonic, variable-sweep wing strategic bomber designed by the Soviet Union. Although several civil and military transport aircraft are larger in overall dimensions, the Tu-160 is: the largest combat aircraft, the largest supersonic aircraft and the largest variable-sweep aircraft ever built. The Tu-160 also has the greatest total thrust, and the heaviest takeoff weight of any combat aircraft, and the highest top speed as well as one of the largest payloads of any current heavy bomber.

Superb shot.
Nice pic, but I think you'll find the XB-70 is the largest and fastest combat aircraft ever built, although it did not enter service.
Wow! Fantastic angle! Bring us more!
