There are 2 specific crisis involving USA and countries supported by USSR / Russia.
Cuban Missile Crisis, October 14 to 18, 1962. 10% correction.
Gulf War, Operation Desert Shield portion, 2 Aug 1990 to 17 Jan 1991. 17% correction at the bottom.
If history repeat itself where Ukraine really becoming the battleground involving both US and Russia, it will induce a steep selloff. But the stock market happened to rally hard right after both crisis, so the effect is definitely temporary.
