Full movie

clip



The plane is an actor who plays the role of Orion.

It is a film with a subject similar to the submarine incident kursk but in reverse.

Very cold times.

It is an IL-38 (Orion role) escorted by two Tu-16E

The movie was a supersuccess

Looks like loco nailed it, but let's wait for LameHawk's confirmation.

Oh - I can only confirm.

I haven't seen the film (I will now!), so Loco's excellent answer provides him with the responsibility to find the next plane

Yup

The mariana guys were afraid to land, flying slow,  something with sweep wings on an aircraft carrier and have made this thing to try.

Paradogically the wing was to fly slow ... that's why the landing gear is fixed.

You turn P51vsFw190!
