When the U-2 spy plane was shot down on May 1, 1960, it was carrying high-altitude photographic equipment designed to capture detailed images of Soviet military installations. The plane was on a reconnaissance mission over Soviet territory, gathering intelligence on missile sites and other strategic military assets. The incident escalated Cold War tensions, especially after the U.S. initially denied the plane's purpose before acknowledging it was a spy mission. The pilot, Francis Gary Powers, was captured and later exchanged for a Soviet spy.
