Product Information

In 1955 two Russian MiGs attacked a US Navy Neptune patrol bomber with its crew of eleven which was flying on the US side of the International Date Line. For years, Russia had endured multiple US violations of its airspace. Finally, they attacked a completely incent patrol plane flying over international waters. The attack set one engine on fire, destroyed the hydraulics, the electronics, and electrical power, and wounded six crew members. The pilot gently crash-landed the critically damaged, flaming airplane, thereby saving the lives of his crew. The position of the bomber at the time of attack was verified by its own radar and navigator and multiple radar sites on the Alaskan coast. Even though the evidence was t conclusive to the Russians, they admitted to a share of the responsibility and paid half the cost of the plane, an unprecedented move. The role of the Russian submarine and the USAF fighter response is the author's invention.
