With bomb bay doors open B-52 does a high-speed, low altitude pass over a nameless beach…

Royal Australian Air Force English Electric A84 Canberra bomber drops to within 25 feet.

A Consolidated B-36 Peacemaker ripping up the shoreline. Designed for high altitudes, such a pass was a very rare sight!

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.

I immediately snapped on this too but when I went back to look I realized the the comment description for each photo is on top of the photo and it does correctly identify the plane as a B-36.
