I know it isn't, just saying it looks like a stubbier version of one.

Figure it is some obscure eastern european type.

I guess we copy off of them who cares.

The Tu-91 wasn't a copy of a US plane.  The 2nd picture of the A-2D Skyshark was based on the A-1 Skyraider, a US plane.

You really need to pay attention in school.
