Putin Fires Missiles On Simulator, Reveals Details Of Tu-160 Bomber Flight With Eye On Polls, West

Russian President Vladimir Putin got into the cockpit of a flight simulator during his visit to a military aviation school in Krasnodar. During his visit to the school on March 7, Putin also tried his hand at firing a missile on a simulator. Major General Anatoly Yudin, head of the school, showed the Russian leader how to fire a missile on a simulated mission. “Here is the combat button,“ Yudin told Putin, who is the supreme commander-in-chief of the Russian forces. “Press the combat button upon receiving a command - I beg your pardon - information from the instructor in the rear cockpit,“ said Yudin. After simulating a missile attack, Russia’s head of state continued his tour of the school’s training facilities. A day before International Women’s Day, Putin also held a meeting with women graduates and presented them with flowers. #putin #russiaukrainewar #russia #russianpresidentputin #ukraine #tu160 n18oc_world n18oc_crux 0:00 INTRODUCTION 1:34 “THE LAST FLIGHT ON TU-160 WASN’T PLANNED BECAUSE...“ CRUX is your daily video news guide to the big events that are shaping our world.
