Around 1993-94 I saw an interview with a *former* Russian (Soviet) Air Force
general who claimed Mathias Rust caused more Air Defense modifications (which
was *very* expensive) than both the B-1B and B-2.

Of course they changed their operational procedures, but I
wonder what they did which cost money? They saw and
intercepted him and must have been aware that sometimes
aircraft fly at low altitudes so why would that incident
get them to improve low altitude coverage?
