With the reopening of the BEAR production line, the Soviets began producing a new, upgraded variant of the BEAR turboprop bomber, thereby increasing their long-range bomber force. This BEAR H became the launch platform for the long-range Kh-55 [AS-15] air-launched cruise missile. The initial version carried Kh-55 air-to-surface missiles located on a catapult in the bomb bay. By 1988 BEAR H bombers were regularly seen training in simulating attacks against North America.
