Russia has stated that it has deployed a novel long-range air-launched cruise missile called the Kh-BD, and it is currently equipping its Tu-160 Blackjack strategic bombers with this munition.
The enigmatic Kh-BD has been under development for a considerable duration; however, there has been no authenticated imagery of it publicly disclosed to date.
Sergey Kobylash, who leads Russia’s Long-Range Aviation division responsible for bombers and cruise missile carriers, stated that the Tu-160s were currently equipped with the Kh-BD missile. He gave this statement while visiting Knevichi Airfield, which is located within Vladivostok International Airport in Russia’s Far East, in the presence of North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and Russian Minister of Defense Sergey Shoigu.
