I doubt the CIA were gaming Google in the 60s. It&#x27;s also beyond ridiculous to think that a superpower like the USSR couldn&#x27;t completely evaluate any material that came their way. The fake aircraft seems more reasonable though: <a href="https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Kamov_Ka-50#Development" rel="nofollow">https:&#x2F;&#x2F;en.wikipedia.org&#x2F;wiki&#x2F;Kamov_Ka-50#Development</a><p>&gt;  The first two Ka-50 prototypes had false windows painted on them.[19] The &quot;windows&quot; evidently worked, as the first western reports of the aircraft were wildly inaccurate, to the point of some analysts even concluding its primary mission was as an air superiority aircraft for hunting and killing NATO attack helicopters.
