No, they scrambled F-16's I believe and were given orders to engage compromised aircraft, but they didn't shoot any down. 3 of the 4 planes crashed into buildings and 1 crashed in a field as the passengers attempted to retain control of the aircraft. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Todd_Beamer https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Todd_Beamer
