We can get Tu-95M-5 conversion although I think the plane is perfectly fine in the simulator right now. The only things that should be changed is reduction of repair prices, because they are quite high, and the aircraft’s durability should be increased.

A quick summary of the Tu-95M-5. It received an improved Sirena-3 RWR, a radar for guiding two KSR-5 heavy missiles on external pylons, and the aforementioned missiles. Defensive armament was reduced from three to two turrets. And when that becomes a thing, so do better RL jammers.
The defensive turrets are missing its 1200rpm minimum fire rate so theres a buff if it gets fixed.
No it’s not. It’s free food for the enemy
Kh26mp is a varient of this missile too absolutely huge anti radiation missile

Tu-95M have one big advantage compared to B-52 in sim and thats 3rd person view thanks to multiple turrets. This significantly improves situational awareness.
And it’s still an under-count (sort of), and isn’t even the B-52 with the greatest conventional bomb load, that would be the B-52D.
Which would up the internal carriage from 27x M117 750lb bombs to 42 bombs + external racks brings the count to 66 in total, or similar for the mk 82 500lb bomb up to 110 bombs.
Also it would swap out the M61 for 4x M3 Cal. 50s so significantly reduce defensive performance, since the tail gun is the only station.
