When speaking about legends and diffused light then I should mention Hollywood. A certain proportion of our superficial knowledge derives its origin from Warner Bros., Universal and other motion picture studios.
To trace a KGB-Chaika to its source I want you to take a look at the screenplay of Firefox, a spy thriller featuring Clint Eastwood as an intrepid bulwark of occidentally freedom. To capture a MIG-31, a fully computerized stealth fighter, he alone has to vanquish the entire Red Army - business as usual for Clint.
The movie, filmed in 1982, looked a bit ahead. Thoughts with which the anti-aircraft missiles can be precisely controlled have to be thought Russian - well, Chuck Norris won American Idol using only sign language.
But what's the problem with the Chaika? Look, taking BigKev's calculation method of 5% car attrition as a basis then not more than 2,046 Chaika's existed worldwide in 1982 and if the KGB would have to choose a vehicle to watch Dirty Harry furtively on his way in the middle of nowhere to the air base of Bilyarsk then they wouldn'd use a Chaika, known for 23 years as distinctive Soviet government car.
