There were quite a lot of U-2 incidents, but the one generally called "The U-2 Incident" occurred in the final year of the Eisenhower administration. After repeated accusations from the Soviet Union that American spy planes were invading their space, and America's repeated denials, the Russians shot down a U-2 flown by Francis Gary Powers deep inside Russia. The resulting publicity caused the two countries to cancel an important series of arms reduction talks.
The U2 incident was where A united States spy plane was shot down over Russia. The pilot was Gary Powers and he was captured by the Russians, who used this to embarass the US.
Francis Gary Powers was the pilot of the Lockheed U2 spy plane that was shot down by the former USSR with a surface to air missile (SAM) in 1960. After lengthy negotiations, a prisoner exchange was made returning Powers to the United States. [JMH]
