How to detect if it is a nuclear bomber >> Anti-flash white
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-flash_white
ru :
Some nuclear bombers had the underside of the fuselage painted anti-flash white with the upper surfaces painted light silver-gray.
This was true for the specially fitted, single Soviet Tu-95V bomber that test-deployed the most powerful bomb of any kind – the 50+ MT-rating Tsar Bomba on 30 October 1961
– as it had the anti-flash white on al its undersurfaces and sides
uk :
Anti-flash white was used on the Royal Air Force V bombers force and the Royal Navy Blackburn Buccaneer when used in the nuclear strike role.
us :
Many Strategic Air Command nuclear bombers carried anti-flash white without insignia on the underside of the fuselage with light silver-gray or natural metal (later light camouflage) on the upper surfaces
--
if you see this airplane ( with color Anti-flash white ) ... no problem--- just "Duck and cover" >
