This has happened three times between 1962 and 1979 (it stopped with the death of Brezhnev), in 1976, Russians brought down a Norwegian RC-135 over Kola Peninsula with an SA-6, fired from within Finnish territory, and then blamed Finns for the incident.
Mission Objectives: o Snow borne patrol techniques
