Maybe google 'globo espía chino.'What's going on with the other balloon in Latin America? Why are we not hearing anything about it?

We also can scramble to hide anything in plain sight, like we've always been able to. Seeing if and how they steer this thing is important intel.We had the opportunity to take it down when it crossed the Gulf of Alaska. That is a sign of timidness.
My friend collided with another fighter jet some 10yrs ago. Both ejected, planes disintegrated going down. Part of an airplane hits some old lady on some farm in the middle of nowhere. Her arm had to be amputated. Next closest house was some 25km away.
Plus most of these were sober (I think)One thing is clear if we are ever invaded, the number of people who are experts in air defense is seriously staggering. We do not have to worry
Enemy asset identification is top notch too.One thing is clear if we are ever invaded, the number of people who are experts in air defense is seriously staggering. We do not have to worry
The speculation seems to be the PRC had very poor timing and this just another diplomatic complaint the US can use against China and paint them as the aggressors to the Asian rim. In quieter events people seem to ignore, the US military is returning to the Philippines in a big way and Filipino invitations for such are based on arrogant PRC provocations. So, in the end, the balloon thing seems like belligerent idiocy to a point, I mean intel balloons are so 1948. That 400K may have been better spent than one can imagine...I just read a news report that claimed the missile was an AIM-9X Block 2 that used data link from the launch F-22 for guidance for at least part of the flight path, if not all. I have no prior knowledge either classified or unclassified of the capability of this missile, or the accuracy of the report.
If, as a country, we have any hair on our covered regions, when we receive the Chinese diplomatic protest we will respond with not an apology, but with a bill for $400k for the cost of the missile. And then impose serious sanctions until the bill is paid.
Fram doesn’t have the only look up programEnemy asset identification is top notch too.
EV subsidies …If they were Spying on us ....would they really use a balloon run on solar ?

There have been ASAT programs around for a very long time (early 80s). Of course, having them and using them are two different things.So the chinese will destroy spy satellites flying over their mainland? Give it a rest already
Not in my family - and even Facebook is only used to sell …Most people who freaked out about spying, have no clue about Tik Tok.
Lol. I have Twitter and Facebook for professional things, but Tik Tok? Absolutely NO WAY!Not in my family - and even Facebook is only used to sell …

Just think what we are doing.Bizarre beyond imagination. I have 100 unanswered questions. And apparently not the first time we've been infiltrated recently.
I'm not going to get into politics, but people need to really start thinking critically about all of our world events if we can be infiltrated by basically WW1 technology that floats around with impunity for a week. And we aren't even given the real full story. Wake up, America!
I heard it was a bunch of fake Louis Vuitton handbags…Thank goodness they did it over open ocean instead of over land. No telling what else that thing may have been carrying.
