I don't know, I think if the US told the Russians they were going to be conducting sweeps in force, 20 or 30 at a time with full counter electronic support and that the Russians needed to stay out of their way, say stay below 15,000 feet just to be safe it is clear the Russian kit is lousy and they would get wiped out if they pushed back, if you can keep the Russians scared edgy and down in Javelin range it would be worth the risk.

Putin is having his arse handed to him right now, the last he and the Russian Airforce would want to do is escalate and it might actually give Putin and excuse to stand down, as terrible as this is for the Ukraine this is an utter disaster for Russia, their forces have been exposed as utterly incompetant
