The Akula SB-3 is a Tennaiite strategic bomber in service with the Royal Tennaiite Air Force. It is a development of the earlier Akula B-113 medium range tactical bomber that entered service in 1967. Compared to the B-113 it has a lengthened fuselage, a much extended range and payload, more powerful engines and redesigned engine intakes, and more advanced avionics and radar. After entering service with the RTAF, it has become a major component of Tennai's strategic air power and nuclear deterrence force.
