Nevertheless, the Imperial Russian Air Force at that time far from competing with the air forces of the Central Powers, between 1914 and 1918 had only 5000 were produced in Russia against 45,000 in Germany . It was in 1918 , in the midst of the Russian Civil War , that created a new Air Force under the designation of Air Fleet of workers and peasants, under the tight control of the Red Army . In 1930 , it acquired its independence and takes its final name: Voienno-vozduchnyie sily.

When the Soviets saw the first images of the F-111 US in 1964, they realized they had the delay in the field of bomber penetration at low altitude. Having to oppose only modest and old Yak-28 Brewer and Ilyushin Il-28 Beagle , they inspired the design of the US to design their own.
