That's very similar to how the "accidental" flights over neighbouring territory works as far as I understand. This happens regularly between many countries. Just far enough to get some response, but not enough to get shot down immediately. | ||||||||

> This happens regularly between many countries. I cannot find any lists (either in English or Swedish) but I remember Russia has been accidentally breaking into Swedish airspace like once a year for as long as I can remember. Submarines also sometimes "accidentally" end up close to Swedish shores. It'd be interesting to see some total numbers, and compare other countries with how often it happens between Sweden/Russia. | ||||||||
