The Tupolev Tu-2000 was a planned long-range heavy bomber designed by the Tupolev design bureau. Originally designed for the Soviet Union development then continued for use by the Russian Air Force until it was eventually cancelled. On 19 August 2009 Tupolev announced that it had a contract with the Russian Defense Ministry to develop a new-generation strategic bomber which will be a conceptually new plane based on the most advanced technologies.
