Well this was the fear of American F15 pilots in West Germany during the Cold War. Spetsnaz assassination teams targeting critical crew where hours mattered not the days to get replacements from stateside.
There was also the story of the travelling salesman in Sweden in the 80's, suspected Russian commandos again. Half the pilots of one Swedish Air Force fighter wing were visited so the old wives tale says.
