OK guys, real talk: if our govt is so compromised China can fly directly over our airspace and not get shot down, they no longer have the need to fly a balloon over our heads. The fact that this is here at all means
- It probably wasnt the Chinese who sent it
- NORAD cannot lock onto it
If this thing was actually appearing on radar over nuclear sites (now it has been over silos in Montana and Whiteman AFB in MO, where the stealth bombers are housed) it would have been neutralized immediately.
It's obvious that the official story is a lie, but I think what they're covering up is that they dont know what it is, and they're unable to shoot it.
Thoughts?
unable to shoot it seems like a stretch. even if they can't radar lock the thing and hit it that way.. its not extremely maneuverable, some fighter pilot could shoot it down.
Depending on the type of material used to build it, it could have next to no radar signature. If it is above 65,000 feet it is above the sevice ceiling of fighter jets. Supposedly these weather balloons can go up to 200,000 feet. Additionally, as I said before, if the chinese have the ability to tell our army not to shoot (due to commanders that are very compromised) they have no need for intelligence flights. They could just tell these compromised commanders "give us this data we want" instead of sending a balloon to collect it themselves. If it's not generating a radar signature or heat, that neutralizes almost all our defenses. It could be too high to engage w guns.
Having said that, I think it is more likely that this did not come from China. China will take credit for it since we are offering it
sorry, i thought people were seeing it with the naked eye from the ground.
Idk. It flew over me and i couldnt see it some footage I saw was taken by an aircraft. I have seen people estimating as low as 20,000 feet and high as 80,000 so maybe it is changing altitude as it goes. Or maybe people are just really bad at estimating height. Either way, it was miles up there and beyond AR range
I'm thinking the dumb thing is the DS playing with project bluebeam
