The layout adopted was a break from that used by previous generations of Tupolev airliners where the engines had either been buried in the wings or mounted on the rear fuselage, while extensive use was to be made of composite materials in its construction.

Andrei Nikolayevich Tupolev grew up in a well-educated, liberal family of modest means that worked a small farm in the Tver region of Russia.
Tupolev's first design, a sleek monoplane with wings free of World War I-style braces and struts, was constructed mostly of an aluminum alloy reverse-engineered from German airframes.
Tupolev was freed in July 1941, but continued to work with the "special prison workshop," which in the fall was transported to Siberia to avoid advancing German forces.

Tupolev, the principal figure in the early development of Soviet aviation and a leading aircraft designer, was led away to immediate imprisonment.
Tupolev and his design team were imprisoned, along with the Petlyakov and Myasischev design teams, in the buildings Tupolev had worked in prior to his arrest—later to become the Tupolev Design Bureau.
Finally, Tupolev had his original US trip as a baseline for his 1935 trip, and his observations regarding strides in world aviation and the comparative development of Soviet aviation would be historically significant.

They were quickly copied by the design bureau and formed the basis of the first Soviet intercontinental strategic bomber, the Tu-4 (NATO reporting name 'Bull'), which first flew in 1947 and was produced in substantial numbers.
Even before the first flights of the Tu-16 and Tu-20/Tu-95, Tupolev was working high-speed supersonic bombers, culminating in the unsuccessful Tu-98 (NATO reporting name 'Backfin').
Although that aircraft never entered service, it became the basis for the prototype Tu-102 (later developed into the Tupolev Tu-28 Interceptor) and the Tu-105, which evolved into the supersonic Tu-22 'Blinder' bomber in the mid-1960s.
