@Paul_stilgar @noelreports There are reasons not to do it:
1. Falling debris of cruise missile or AA missile could kill someone.
2. You can't shoot things down when the airspace is not closed. Let's leave shooting down civilian aircraft to ๐ท๐บ.
3. No one has 100% AD coverage, not even ๐ฎ๐ฑ. ๐ต๐ฑ GBAD is in a terrible state. It was already badly outdated before the war and then a lot (most?) of it was sent to Ukraine. F-16 couldn't get there in 39s.
4. ๐ท๐บ would learn wartime modes of NATO radars/rockets.
