The Tu-22M3 Backfire-C” was the latest version of the Tu-22M family. She equipped a new engine, two NK-25 engines replacing the original NK-22s, which made it capable of Mach 1 at low level and had a max speed of Mach 2.05. Also, the maximum wing sweep was increased back to 65 degrees. The Tu-22M3 was also armed with a new weapon, the Kh-22 No Tu-22M backfires were exported. Russia remains the biggest operator of the type; Ukraine is the only other operator. It inherited a large number of Tu-22M3s from the Soviet Union. But all of them were scrapped in 2005.
