What you’re seeing here is not a small fighter but a B-52 Stratofortress.

A pair of Tu-22Ks performs a low fly-by over Machulishchi at around 15-20m (50-70ft).

Such low-level flights were often performed by Tu-22 crews, albeit at a slightly higher level (around 80-150m / 260-500ft), but usually in manual mode, without the benefit of automatic flight control or terrain-following radar.
