LOL, I fly DCS occasionally and, for anyone tuning in, the joke here is that the balloon is "round" and therefore always is on your "six" ahah this, this is great
Wouldn't it have to be behind you for it to "be on your six"? The shape of the object has no bearing on where it is relative to the attitude of your aircraft.
What you said in the title wasn't necessarily wrong. You could say that a round object is always facing you if you want to look at it like that. Saying that it is facing you is different from saying that it is behind you.
Ok for starters, the Scavino Super Bowl video where DJT threw the football right thru the hole like a Top Gun boss exactly on the :22 mark of video. Notice too that throw happened on Pilots Field. Today is 2/12. I think something is going down on 2/22. Lots of tfr for next week. US pilots been "shooting down balloons." Let's see what happens.
Because of the potential harm to wildlife and the effect of litter on the environment, some jurisdictions even legislate to control mass balloon releases. Legislation proposed in Maryland, US, was named after Inky, a pygmy sperm whale who needed six operations after swallowing debris, the largest piece of which was a Mylar balloon.[16][17] The Balloon Council, a trade organization that represents the interests of balloon businesses, claims that there is no documentary evidence to suggest that the death of any sea mammal has been attributed to foil balloons as a sole cause, to date.
The most common type of high-altitude balloons is weather balloons. Other purposes include use as a platform for experiments in the upper atmosphere. Modern balloons generally contain electronic equipment such as radio transmitters, cameras, or satellite navigation systems, such as GPS receivers.
hahaha!!
You were in a 4g negative dive with a Google spy balloon? cough bullshit

It's classified. I could tell you, but then I'd have to kill you.

Oh, that's true actually, I should have said always have its missiles locked on you or something, you are correct

BUT the carrier featured during the National Anthem of today's Super Bowl is the USS CARL VINSSON, the same carrier featured in Top Gun 2022.

I didn't this about the history of balloons. There is quite a history.

Whales swim in water = information. When they breach, they spout water = information into the air.
Balloons represent "whales" = someone who is spouting off and revealing information, must be taken out like the weather balloons.
