I remember the 1983 incident well but I’ve never heard of this one.
Very interesting story.

Likewise. The two deaths on that 707 must have been from schrapnel???, the fuse looked peppered, and one larger hole.

Good find Optimator, not what everyone would expect from the title and an interesting aspect of the Cold War.

Wasn’t there a Korean 747 that was downed with total loss of life, later than 1978?
Korean Flt 007 was completely destroyed in 1983 after being fired on by a missile from a Russian fighter..all 269 souls on board were lost
