spy plane question....?

Russia actually flies over Alaska and Canada all the time. It just doesn't make the news.

No the U-2 is a unique aircraft that and there is no Warsaw Pact or Chinese equivalent. They did not do overflight of the US, as it is too far and they don't have the basing for it. Besides the U-2 was only able to avoid Russian air defense until the 50s, when the SA-2 made overflights of Russia a thing of the past.

The Russian occasionally, bust our territorial airspace, but nothing like a full blown overflight. They fly over towards Alaska and Canada with their Tu-95s and Tu-160s as a show of force. So I wouldn't think they are collecting much primo intel from these flights.

The CIA, notwithstanding, needed a very last seem at suspected new ICBM internet sites below structure especially parts of the northern Ural Mountains and White Sea at Tyuratam, Sverdlovsk, and fairly Plesetsk, 600 miles north of Moscow, the position it believed ICBMs were already operational. At that determination, the perspective of sunlight allowed sensible images in effortless words from April though July; if a U-2 did not make the flight then, the attempt ought to ought to attend until eventually 1961. DATS a million clarification why cia replaced into very a lot intrested in sending u2 to soviet..aside 4m d causes inclusive of cia's pursuits n gaining a top hand.

Who knows? Maybe there is a top secret stealth plane from China flying over us that we don't even know about. Right now at this very moment. ;-)

As far as I know though, Russia and China don't have the technology to pass over us undetected in an aircraft. A intelligence satellite would make much more sense. China has the technology to shoot them down and the money to send 'em up. Except it is almost impossible to launch a satellite into space undetected.

They like photographing Sarah Palin sunbathing. But, she probably sees them taking off in Russia since she keeps such a close watch on them.

I don't think they have had the capability to overfly the continental US without detection.

Yes there is a chinese version! My friend Wu Tan and I used to play strip chinese checkers every tuesday. Wu Tan however used to cheat dreadfully however so I told him I couldn't play as I had piano lessons instead which was a lie...I was actually playing strip chinese checkers with my bestie Lara Bingle. Needless Wu Tan is a jealous type so he payed the chinese government to take pictures of us. Which was fine...but Lara sold them to gossip magazines. Imagine my surprise!
