Are they basically just there to shoot down the plane before causes larger casualties by crashing into a heavily populated area? I can’t imagine what else a jet can do to a large commercial aircraft in the air.

    Its more what they can reasonably do. Keep in mind our commander in chief is ignoring both the congress and the courts right now and if a question like that was asked on lemmy five months ago most poeple would say thats impossible. Even then im 100% sure if they knew what was happening with the 9/11 planes they would have shot them down. I read the 911 report book. Its a hefty read. One of the last real books I read unfortunately. Im like 99% sure some of it talked about this kind of thing although its possible what im thinking of is from another source.
