军方官员表示，当地时间周二，F-16战机拦截了一架闯入华盛顿特区受限空域的民用飞机，并将其安全护送出该区域。
北美防空联合司令部（NORAD）在一份新闻稿中称，这架飞机于当日上午11点15分左右进入华盛顿特区大都会区特殊飞行规则空域（简称DC SFRA）。该司令部表示，美国大陆防空区已紧急出动F-16战机。
北美防空联合司令部称，F-16战机“已拦截该飞机，确保其脱离受限空域，未发生进一步意外”。
根据美国联邦航空管理局（FAA）的数据，该受限空域是环绕华盛顿特区、半径约33英里的圆形区域。在此空域飞行的飞行员必须获得 FAA 空中交通管制的特定许可、配备特定应答机和呼号，并直接与空中交通管制保持联系。
FAA表示，任何不符合上述要求飞入该区域的飞机都将被护送出该空域。北美防空联合司令部表示，其使用“由雷达、卫星和战机组成的分层防御网络来识别和应对潜在威胁”，包括未获得许可进入该区域的民用飞机。
DC SFRA空域内还包含飞行限制区，这是一个更小的区域，涵盖里根国家机场。FAA称，未经豁免，只有政府飞机以及往返该机场的商业航班才能在此区域运行。
拦截闯入受限空域的民用飞机并非罕见事件。过去一年中，多架飞机因闯入马里兰州棕榈滩附近的临时受限空域被拦截，当时特朗普总统正在这座佛罗里达度假村。2025年夏季，特朗普先生的贝德明斯特高尔夫俱乐部附近发生了十余起类似事件。当总统不在华盛顿特区时，北美防空联合司令部会常规设置临时飞行限制区以保护其安全。
2023年，两架F-16战机紧急起飞，拦截一架失去响应的塞斯纳飞机，当时该机闯入华盛顿特区上空的受限空域。据CBS附属机构WUSA-TV报道，这些战机引发了音爆，该区域居民均有听闻。

F-16 fighter planes intercepted a civilian plane that entered restricted airspace above Washington, D.C., on Tuesday, safely escorting it from the area, military officials said.
The aircraft entered the Washington D.C. Metropolitan Area Special Flight Rules Area, or DC SFRA, around 11:15 a.m., North American Aerospace Defense Command said in a news release. F-16s were dispatched by the Continental U.S. NORAD Region, the agency said.
The F-16s “intercepted the aircraft and ensured it remained clear of restricted airspace without further incident,” NORAD said.
The restricted area is a circular zone of about 33 miles around the city, according to the Federal Aviation Administration. Pilots flying within the area must have obtained specific clearance from FAA air traffic control, have a specific transponder and call sign, and be in direct contact with air traffic control.
Any plane flying within the area that does not meet those specifications will be escorted from the region, according to the FAA. NORAD said it uses “a layered defense network of radars, satellites, and fighter aircraft to identify and respond to potential threats,” including civilian aircraft that are not cleared to enter the zone.
Inside the DC SFRA is the Flight-Restricted Zone, a smaller region that includes Reagan National Airport. Only government aircraft and commercial planes coming in and out of the airport can operate in this area without a waiver, according to the FAA.
Interceptions of civilian planes in restricted airspace are not uncommon. In the past year, multiple planes were intercepted for entering temporarily restricted airspace near Mar-a-Lago while President Trump was at the Florida resort. Over a dozen similar incidents occurred at Mr. Trump’s Bedminster golf club in summer 2025. Temporary flight restriction zones are routinely issued by NORAD to protect the president when he is not in Washington, D.C.
In 2023, two F-16 fighter jets were scrambled to intercept an unresponsive Cessna aircraft as it trespassed into restricted airspace over D.C. CBS affiliate WUSA-TV reported that the jets created a sonic boom that was heard by residents across the region.
