On 2025-09-19, three MiG-31 aircraft were reported to have violated Estonian airspace. They were escorted out of NATO airspace.

On 2015-11-24, a Russian SU-24 was shot down within NATO airspace by Turkey.

Will a Russian aircraft (crewed, not a drone) be shot down within 6 months of this recent incident?

Establishing proof of the airspace violation might be hard. Outcome will be based on a consensus of credible reporting combined with NATO statements, provided they appear to be basically plausible. (The 2015 incident would count under this rule.) Local time zone.

What if it was an uncrewed aircraft ("drone"), but it was actually prepped to do some damage such as carrying weapons? Still a No?

@Eliza Still a no. We should probably have a market on a repeat of the Poland incident or similar escalation as well, but my general impression is that drone shootdowns are less of a big deal, so I made the market this way.
