    What’s to prevent them from allowing the planes into airspace, warning them, then forcing them to land if they don’t GTFO after the 1st warning?

      Because, unlike the safe fragile bubble society has built around you, military forces only respond to agression and violence. Kind words and warnings belong to the politicians, self defense is non-negotiable; rules of engagement are mandated by politics.

      There’s this thing called a missile. 50 kg of high explosive at the front end of the missile will blow the other aircraft out of the sky.

      That’s what keeps these planes from nuking your cities.
