Tupolev Tu-95
The Tupolev Tu-95 is a large, four-engine turboprop-powered strategic bomber and missile platform that was first flown in 1952 and entered service with the Long-Range Aviation of the Soviet Air Forces in 1956. It has four Kuznetsov NK-12 engines with contra-rotating propellers and is the only propeller-powered strategic bomber still in operational use today. The Tu-95 is one of the loudest military aircraft and has a distinctive swept-back wing design with a 35-degree angle. It is powered by four Kuznetsov NK-12 engines, each with two contra-rotating propellers, and has a top speed between that of piston engines and turbojets. The Tu-95 was developed by the Tupolev design bureau, led by Andrei Tupolev, in response to a Soviet Union requirement for a bomber with a range of 8,000 km and a load capacity of 11,000 kg.learn more on wikipedia
