#4 Putin's brand of intimidation on the installment plan, and if someone's air force gets aggressive, then you have an incident that can lead to war. This is a very dangerous game of chicken on Putin's part.

But, as long as Putin keeps doing this and nobody does anything, he slowly gains the upper hand, until......some incident happens, like an accidental collision and a Bear falls out of the sky and all bets are off.
