Yes, I've been thinking the same thing. Usually Russians don't care about pilot comfort, and now suddenly they have a five-star bomber.

I guess the vibrations inside the Bears in combination with improvised toilets had painted a picture for the Russian aviation constructors.

Yet it's not good enough, there is no minibar installed.
