This page appears inaccurate, the ballon interceptor was decades earlier and had a completely different design (wings, fueselage, controls). It is not the M-17, an earlier single engined version of the M-55!

Fair use rationale for Image:M55 scheme top.jpg

Image:M55 scheme top.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

One in 17 down?

Allegedly an M-17 or M-55 was accidentally shot down by the MN (Hungarian People's Army) air defence troops, using SA-4 "Krug" missiles, after it returned to eastern bloc airspace from a recon mission and the soviet pilot forgot to turn of the fake IFF, which transmitted NATO look-alike radio signals, used to confuse "imperialist" air defences during the mission over western europe. The plane appeared hostile to soviet-made radars due to the faux NATO IFF signals.

Apparently the pilot ejected, because the cockpit canopy was not part of the wreckage that got cleaned up by the soviets. The canopy was found months later by hungarian peasants. A timeframe of the (late?) 1970s is mentioned, but this may be apocryphal. 87.97.109.217 (talk) 20:34, 2 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]


I find it difficult to believe that this aircraft was designed to shoot down American high altitude overflight balloons when such balloon flights had ended with the advent of recon satellites (around 1960)...this aircraft was designed years later. Does anyone have any information on this? NelsonLB (talk) 03:47, 6 December 2013 (UTC)NelsonLB[reply]
