The Russian Air Force may be being pushed to its limits

On Jul. 14, at 09.50 Moscow Time, a $4 crashed in an uninhabited area 80 km from Khabarovsk.

According to the Russian Ministry of Defense, the aircraft was conducting a training mission and it was unarmed. All the crew left the aircraft uninjured.

Newsworthy, this is the second incident in little more than one month: on Jun. 9, a $4, in the Amur region, in an incident that resulted in the death of one crew member.

Following the incident, all the $4 fleet was grounded: a flight ban lifted few days ago and "celebrated" on Jul. 4 with $4.

It's unclear if the Bears will be grounded again. Surely, the latest mishap might be the sign that some quite old Russian warplanes, used to $4, are being pushed to their limits, as $4.

Along with the two Tu-95s, the most recent Russian crashes include $4 Fencer, two $4 and a $4
