I get what you're saying but Russia isn't that dumb, they know they'd be detected.
It's best to wait a little to not give away your quickest possible response time, then send some aircraft up to politely escort them out.
This will also give your pilots some airtime so they can keep their flying hours topped up.
When dealing with normal governments, yes. When dealing with Russia, no. Russian plane crossing into Turkish airspace from Syria several years ago proved that. It was shot down immediately and there has been not a single infraction since.
