I always had a special place in my heart for the Backfire. It's not the best Russian bomber, or the most beautiful, but there's just something about it that appeals to me. The Blackjack looks like what it is, essentially a rip-off of the B-1 Lancer. But the Backfire looks so typically Russian, all chunky and solid-looking. Love that plane.

Kalinin K-7 (1930s). It never got past the experimental stage;it crashed while testing and killed several people. Memorable design though.

I completely overlooked this one, and it's one I've posted before.
An awe-inspiring behemoth!
