The whole thing I'm having with flonne is that it doesn't matter if it's hanging over china, they'd probably shut it down with our request. This is assuming they allowed it to begin with and didn't think the US would care all that much. Or what the f`uck ever.
You and (assuming) masspans argument is they wouldn't allow it to begin with.
Shooting down a civilian drone aircraft (no pilot = no casualties!) operating illegally in your airspace is not an act of war. It would have no more impact on trade between US and China than our Coast Guard seizing drug trafficking vessels does with Colombia.
