Hope you don't mind AntiBody this is my first contribution
Explanation: Both planes are the varinats of Tu-95 Bear bomber. One can see however the marked difference in their nose shape. The first one is an ASW variant. It was the part of the World's first reconnaissance/strike plane providing midcourse guide to P-6 antiship missiles launched from Submarines or other sea platforms. Tear drop radar in Berkoot(Golden Eagle). The latter & feared duckbill bomber is Tu-95MS/k featured a YaD target illumination radar (NATO Crown Drum} in the nose, supplanting the glazed nose of the Bear-A: the twin-antenna array of the YaD (one antenna for search and another for missile guidance) resulted in a distinctive "duck bill" nose profile. The turbojet-powered Kh-20 was carried semi-recessed in the fuselage and extended into the slipstream prior to launch.

Sukhoi S-54 (1995)
Type: Two-seat advanced jet trainer and light combat aircraft.
Program: Began as one of designs by five OKBs to meet official Russian requirement to replace Aero L-29 and L-39 Albatros; program launched 1990; configuration refined 1992; avionics and system units tested in Su-25 and Su-27.
Design features: Described by Sukhoi as scaled-down development of Su-27, with speed, operating altitude and maneuverability commensurate with combat aircraft; unconventional all-swept mid-wing configuration; twin outward-canted fins mounted at wing trailing-edges; engine air intakes under wing roots; retractable tricycle landing gear.
Flying controls: Fly-by-wire as Su-27, via flaperons, all-moving tailplane and rudders; leading-edge flaps; airbrake; preprogrammable to make aircraft easier to fly, dependent on pupil's ability; optional 'panic button' to return aircraft to straight and level flight from any altitude, and push-button spin recovery; optional playback system to record student's every move in flight.
Landing gear: Retractable tricycle type; single wheel on each unit; mainwheels retract inward, nose wheel forward; no brake-chute.
Power plant: One Soyuz/Tumansky R-195FS turbojet; modified from Su-25 power plant; rated at 41.2 kN (9,260 lb st) dry and 60.8 kN (13,670 lb st) with afterburning; optional alternatives could include F404, RB199, and PD33, with minimum airframe modifications. Two internal fuel tanks, total capacity 1,660 kg (3,660 lb). Single-point pressure fueling.
Accommodation: Two crew in tandem, on K-36 zero/zero ejection seats, under blister canopy; rear seat raised.
Avionics: Avionics and cockpit interior same as for current and advanced tactical aircraft. Automatic flight control system. Weather radar standard.
Armament: Wingtip mounts for two close-range IR homing air-to-air missiles; two hardpoints under each wing for air-to-air and air-to-surface guided weapons.
