Currently there are zero planes squawking a military designation flying over the continental united states. You have to use the button labeled "U" at the top of the window to show only the military planes. I think that you're seeing passenger jets my fren.

From my end I did use the "U". I realize now some of those were close to the Canadian border. The one from Australia was over Hawaii.
Gotcha neighbor. (I live in Texas too) Sometimes I forget to set my filters right and freak myself out. ;)
Australia, Canada, Columbia, Japan, Netherlands, Mexico, Peru
I see two Canadian planes in Canada. That's skeery.
There are no international military planes over the US.
Does anyone have an explanation for foreign military presence? I can't think of anything good.
UN blue helmets?
Excellent for target practice. Oh I'm sorry, I thought I was supposed to complete the sentence. ;)
Seriously, things look okay. If any troop transports were to fly over CONUS you'd be hearing fighter jets and helicopters in most areas.
They do a lot of training here as we have so very big training areas out west.
There aren't any currently. See my comment above.
As to your question, we see foreign military planes pretty frequently in our airspace. I assume that they're involved in international training exercises. Typically you only see those when they are entering or leaving US airspace. They turn their transmitters off during training missions just like ours do. Our airspace is filled with US military aircraft every single day that we can't see via these apps because the military planes can turn their transponders off anytime they want. It's pretty cool that we can have this tech, but it's less than perfect for what you and I are interested in.
Thank you.
Understand one thing, you're seeing what you're allowed to see.
I honestly don’t give a shit about this. When have the plane fags ever been right? (other than maybe AF1 going by Q0 briefly)
bruh, do you even plane fag? plane fags gotta plane fag. kek.
just find it interesting at times to see what's going on at times.
Thanks for voicing your opinion
