So – being a fan of fifties/sixties shlock movies – I download Gamera the Invincible (don’t ask, monster awakened by H-bomb, terror abounds) and click on play. But what hoves into view at the very start? Four Soviet Russian bombers like this;
Hmmmm, they look familiar, says I when….
The best side view I could get, and then, a little later comes….
So what were the pesky commies doing with Victors? I blame spies! 😀

IIRC one of the Harry Palmer movies (Billion Dollar Brain?) caused a diplomatic incident when some Canberras were painted as “enemy” (Russian?) aircraft, and Israel took a picture of them as evidence that the UK was supplying the soviets with arms…
And yes, that joke was AWFUL!

They must have been modified with a much longer undercarriage to keep those tanks off the ground!
