It's bad but it would be worse if it had been:
(1) A US plane taking down a Russian Plane, or;
(2) A Russian Plane taking down a US plane.
Either of the above options would be quite bad and one would have to consider relocating to a air raid shelter promptly, with tins of Heinz baked beans and long duration Spam. Just shows how easily this whole thing can escalate badly:

Looks like the Russian plane was repeatedly warned.
