China has the most batshit, nonsensical territorial claims of any country on earth. They could shoot us down alright, but since everyone else on the planet would agree that it happened in international airspace, they would be really fucking stupid to do so

Except... That's not at all what people are saying. It would be either Japanese airspace or Chinese airspace. It's not China claiming an island alone. It's China and some other party contesting the claims. Only the Western powers claim it to be international airspace.
