How many more 747’s are we willing to to see shot out of the sky because there would be no way to determine one from the other?

Sure, because IFF transponders can't be reprogrammed or anything...

The Russians don't care 'bout no steekin' transponder codes. KAL 007 was squawking a civilian ATC code when it was shot down, the Russians knew it and they shot it down, anyway......
