Shame USSR-The German aircraft was not noticed at the border, and it landed unhindered on Red Square

A German plane violated the airspace of the Soviet Union on the Day of the border guard on May 28, 1987. It landed in the capital on Red Square itself. A huge number of video cameras and photo cameras of tourists recorded this moment. He was arrested ten minutes later. The violator turned out to be Matthias Rust, an eighteen-year-old athlete pilot. He received four years in prison. Several senior military leaders then lost their posts, and the Soviet air defense received a serious reputational blow
