I bet Tupolev didn't think their design would last 100 years

Neither did Boeing at this rate.

At the moment we can't be very sure about that yet as the picture quality is pretty low. I paused the video for a couple of times to check but think it is still too early to confirm it.

someone please explain how you launch one of those things (ALBM), does the plane have to be at the right angle to make it go into space?

Or does it turn on the rocket and just continue a gliding trajectory?
