Ya'll still shot down a civilian airliner and the U.S. government never admited legal liability or formally apologize to Iran. It's not at the same level as what happened in the Ukraine but it's still a mighty shitty thing to do....Christ they got medals for it....
I respectfully request you read about incident more then. Just use the link you already posted, that'll work.
We apologized, we paid. The fact that it wasn't done through formal diplomatic channels doesn't change that almost 62 million went to Iranians. That's shitty?
Russians took the same Fuck You approach they did when they shot down Korean Air 007 in 1983.
That's shitty.
Regarding the wreckage search/investigation into KAL 007:
"These missions met with interference by the Soviets,
[69] in violation of the
1972 Incident at Sea agreement, and included false flag and fake light signals, sending an armed
boarding party to threaten to board a U.S.-chartered Japanese auxiliary vessel (blocked by U.S. warship interposition), interfering with a helicopter coming off the USS
Elliot (Sept. 7), attempted ramming of rigs used by the South Koreans in their quadrant search, hazardous maneuvering of
Gavril Sarychev and near-collision with the
USS Callaghan (September 15, 18), removing U.S.
sonars, setting false
pingers in deep international waters, sending
Backfire bombers armed with
air-to-surface nuclear-armed missiles to threaten U.S. naval units, criss-crossing in front of U.S. combatant vessels (October 26), cutting and attempted cutting of moorings of Japanese auxiliary vessels, particularly
Kaiko Maru III, and
radar lock-ons by a Soviet
Kara-class cruiser,
Petropavlovsk, and a
Kashin-class destroyer,
Odarennyy, targeting U.S. naval ships and the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter
USCGC Douglas Munro (WHEC-724),
USS Towers, escorting
USS Conserver, experienced all of the above interference and was involved in a near-collision with
Odarennyy (September 23–27).

The difference in American and Russian responses to these kinds of accidents is night and day, always has been probably always will.
