Wow does NBC suck. If he NK planes didn't shoot then it wasn't an intercept, international airspace is a fast and lose place and escorts happen. And there is no such thing as international air space over the Korean Peninsula, peninsulas are land and all the land of the Korean Peninsula is part of some country except the DMZ and that's a hardcore no fly zone for everybody.

I'll bet our guys took some nice photos of the Migs we're going to shoot down later.

Report I heard was that the Korean plane actually "lit up" the American plane with it's targeting radar. If so, this would indeed be an intercept and a very agressive act.
