Ummmmmm, the US informed the Russians of the attack hours before the attack, including the base that was being targeted. The Russians had ample time to get their folks out of harms way. No "cowboy" antics here.
And incidentally, the Russians could have warned the Syrian Air Force who could then have evacuated their aircraft. But they did not. The Russians also made no attempts to shoot down the missiles.
