And design transponders so they never go wrong and need to be turned off, and electrical supplies that never need to be turned off, and electrical generators and transfer switches that never go wrong such that shedding the load of the transponder is useful in an emergency, and redesign the parts of the radar system that assume that pilots turn off their transponders when nearby.

In 2001, Russia shot down civil plane approaching it border because of it transporder was turned off (then blamed Ukraine).

Did you link the correct flight? Because your link says something entirely different.

Yep, it says entirely different because Russians are exceptionally good liars. But if you read court documents, then you will see that no hexogen is found at plane crash site, which is impossible for missile warhead made with 60% of hexogen. Moreover, military training was recorded on video, and this record was shown right after incident. 3 missiles was launched, 2 of them hit their targets, one missed. Third rocket blown up in the air by command from ground. Moment of blow up is visible on video.
