The U-2 Affair, also known as the U-2 Incident, was a Cold War confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union in 1960. It began when a U.S. U-2 reconnaissance plane, piloted by Francis Gary Powers, was shot down over Soviet territory on May 1, 1960. The aircraft had been conducting high-altitude surveillance to gather intelligence on Soviet military installations. Initially, the U.S. government claimed the aircraft was a civilian weather research plane, but the Soviets produced the captured pilot and surveillance equipment, forcing the U.S. to admit the true nature of the mission. The incident embarrassed the United States and led to the collapse of a planned summit between U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower and Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev in Paris. Powers was tried for espionage in the Soviet Union and sentenced to 10 years of confinement, but he was exchanged for Soviet spy Rudolf Abel in 1962. The affair heightened Cold War tensions and demonstrated the risks of covert intelligence operations. Ref O 4.
