Reported c/n of 222000159 does not appear to be correct for an H6. Correct serial is 50671. Local version of the Tupolev-16, with over 200 still in service (2021). This aircraft is reported to have dropped China's first nuclear bomb. This photo is copyright © Derek Gaynor, and may not be used or published in any way without permission.
