It says "BBC of Russia"--Russian BBC
I suspect it is a dig at Brits, meaning "our nuclear armed bomber is our propaganda tool".

Can't quite make out the writing on the front. It looks like it says "Dubna"--"Mace"

Военно-воздушные cилы России

Russian Air Force
No wonder they shortened it to "BBC" lol

hmmmmmmm

Long term reason, energy export prices and control of it. The sanctions over the Ukraine showed just how dependent the entire Russian economy is on energy export. Tom Clancy's Red Storm Rising was a good fictional illustration of it for the Soviet era.
