 Fascinating 🧐 
Seems plausible. 

I wonder why you’d want to cover up a thing like this though? What harm would there be letting people know your enemy is playing psychological warfare? Why let the mystery persist for so long 🤔 
 there is also the Varginha, Brazil, case in 1990s that resulted in 1 law enforcement officer dying from exposure to a recovered body and a handful of people in the village being traumatized over seeing/dealing with the creature. 

I've never heard of a mini-pilots from Russia before... that would be interesting and more terrifying. it's like what humans do to our own species is our own worse nightmare  all along.
