FEED: How Many Strategic Bombers Has Russia Lost In Ukraine?

On 19 April 2024, social media was flooded by a Russian Tupolev Tu-22 supersonic bomber on fire and free-falling in an uncontrolled spin. Photos then emerged of the aircraft's destroyed wreck on the ground. The Full-Scale Russian Invasion of Ukraine has been raging for over 2 years now, so how many Russian strategic bombers have been lost? The fog of war is real and the numbers are highly debated. That being said, this war is being filmed in unprecedented detail, creating a never-seen-before transparent battlefield (sometimes almost in real-time). Russia is confirmed to have lost over 100 fixed-wing aircraft in its fight against Ukraine, including a handful of heavy bombers.
