Decent book, USSR is building a new supersonic jet with a new interface that can be controlled by thought. American pilot chosen for a mission to steal the jet, and has to think commands in Russian for the jet to act on them. “How do you say ‘fire’ in Russian?”

Huh, there's a very similar book, "Day of the Cheetah" by Dale Brown. Same plot except the US and USSR roles are reversed.
