Sweden should 'accidentally' torpedo one of their subs when it wanders into their waters, then send them a bill for the torpedo that 'wandered into their hull', should cancel out.

I either don't get it or this joke has no logic.

The Soviet Union/Russia have a habit of sending submarines into Swedish waters.

And sending fighter jets into other countries' air space.

It not usually into the airspace. Just into the air defense zone which is over international waters. It's the nation-state equivalent to "I'm not touching you."

You're right. It did happen once or twice with Finland, but with Norway and the US it is just "near" their airspace.
