For those of you with a kit stashed away, relevant developments from our current quasi-Cold War.
 

MOSCOW –  Russian President Vladimir Putin says modernized strategic bombers will boost the nation's military power.
Speaking on a visit to an aircraft-making plant in Kazan Thursday, Putin said the revamped version of the Soviet-designed Tu-160 bomber features new engines and avionics that would significantly enhance its capability.
The Russian leader attended the signing of a 160-billion-ruble (about $2.9-billion) contract that will see the delivery of 10 such planes to the Russian air force.

While new engines and avionics might not change the external appearances of the aforementioned ten planes, maybe they'll get a swanky new paintjob?
