the doomed jet ignored 10 warnings in five minutes to leave Turkish airspace.

Note that some reports indicate that the incursion into Turkish airspace lasted all of 30 seconds.

I’m not sure you scramble F15s and shoot someone down in 30 seconds.

I’m not convinced the Turkish government was thrilled when they heard a Russian aircraft had been shot down either.

I suspect there were some gung-ho pilots out there, getting their masters in trouble.
