Russian military plane crash in Black Sea on Christmas Day (ATC in Russian)

[GeoffSM1]

An audio recording played on Russian media and said to be of the final conversation between air traffic controllers and the Tu-104 reveals no sign of any difficulties being faced by the crew. Voices remain calm until the plane disappears and the controllers try in vain to re-establish contact.


Although the attached audio is in Russian only (which I do not understand), I find it makes chilling listening and I feel it should  be posted here as a mark of respect to all involved. It covers the period from just before the time of take off to a few minutes after ATC lost contact with the aircraft.
 
May they rest in Peace.

It's a TU-154 not a TU-104. TU-104s haven't flown in ages.
