They’d have to hack military air control. And even then they’d have to jam the communications between AWACS and local air units. Having one system isn’t going to cut it.
Edit to add, since you mentioned a first landing in Virginia, they’d run straight into anti air defenses that operate independently of NORAD. Every woodline would shortly have an Avenger system and the 82nd Airborne would collectively scream in joy as they begged, borrowed, and stole every bit of rifle ammo they could find. They wouldn’t even need orders. Their entire special training is to act without orders because Airborne troops are frequently cut off.

Virginia would go very badly.
