3-4 Tu-95ms aircraft departed from Engels-2 airbase in Saratov Oblast. There are now at least 7 Tu-95s airborne.

This is likely going to be combined strike involving two groups of Tu-95ms aircraft as well as Kalibr missile carriers in the Black Sea.

Approximate situation with the Russian Tu-95ms strategic aircraft.

Launch maneuvers were carried out.

The Tu-95s continue to move south to the Caspian Sea. They will probably conduct a launch maneuver there too.

Another launch maneuver was carried out, this time in the Caspian area. The chances are the first launch maneuver was simulated. We won’t see missiles for at least an hour.

Unconfirmed reports of Kalibr cruise missile launches from The Black Sea.

A third launch maneuver was carried out by the Tu-95ms aircraft.

More Kalibrs were launched, this time from the Gelendzhik area of Krasnodar Krai.

If the first Kalibr launches were real, then we should see missiles in the next few minutes.

1st group of Kalibrs entered Ukrainian airspace via Kherson Oblast.

Actions were noted which could suggest the take-off of a MiG-31K in the near future. The MiG-31K can carry the Kinzhal hypersonic missile.

Unfortunately due to it being Christmas, I have something else on, so I can't provide map updates from here on out. I will try to provide sporadic updates, but it might be difficult. Apologies everyone!
