Standard rules of engagement. Don't fire unless fired upon. It's been that way as long as I can remember.

It takes one weak mind under pressure on the plane to start SHTF scenario.
I don't see that one weak mind coming from the west after decades of constant warfare. Hopefully the Russians are equally well trained.
Also I seem to remember hearing something about the Russian aircraft coming in being armed for A2A. Most likely some British chest puffing to Vlad to say "hey don't # around there".
as a senior cabinet minister warned that Britain was prepared to shoot down Vladimir Putin’s jets.
RAF aren't there illegally,
