unit enters area triggered tied to ships (specific ship maybe) entering the zone tethered to a 1-line luascript editing the side posture to be hostile, while also setting unit doctrine to WCS air hold, then a second box inside the first that returns WCS air to tight?

may be a little inflexible (could tie it to a semi-random time trigger as well, depending) but it will probably do the job.
