USSR: Shoots down spy plane and captures pilot

USA: "One of our planes used for weather monitoring has gone missing."

USSR: "Huh. What a strange coincidence. We shot down a plane just like that the other day."

USA: "Really? Yeah that is strange. The pilot was having issues and must have flown into your airspace on accident."

USSR: "Oh BTW, we recovered a bunch of surveillance equipment from that plane we shot down. ...And we have the pilot."

USA: "Fuck."
