They FINALLY shot the stupid balloon down.

submitted by uvulectomy to whatever 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 15:13:30 ago (+50/-2)     (whatever)

And of course it's off the coast of South Carolina, so the "sensor package" will fall into the water, and likely be "unrecoverable." That way they can still claim it "came from China" and nobody can prove any different.

Fucking kikes.

Shot down with a $50k missile instead of $50 in bullets. And the Pentagon can't find 61% of their assets. Makes sense.

[ - ] uvulectomy [op] 6 points 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 17:28:11 ago (+6/-0)*

It was reported to be at 60,000 feet. That would have meant sending an F-22 up to intercept (service ceiling is 65,000), as the M61A2 cannon only has an effective range of about 2,000ft.

The GAU-8 on the A-10 has an effective range of 4,000ft and a max of 12,000, but the A-10 that carries it only goes up to 45,000ft.

So a missile was probably in the same ballpark cost.

The REAL cheaper option would have just been to use a laser. It wouldn't need to deliver that much heat, and the systems on the YAL-1 were meant to heat through ICBMs, meaning a balloon would be easy.

EDIT: Supposedly they DID send up an F-22 after it? In which case, yeah, why not just use a few bullets.....

[ - ] observation1 5 points 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 21:10:42 ago (+5/-0)

Missles expire so it's a use it or lose it situation. Think of it like all of our ammo is already spent to some degree.

You're not thinking like the pentagon man. They're thinking why not get some practice launching an F-22 and shooting something down (with a missile). I wonder if that counts as a kill for someone. It would be hilarious if you got a tat about it. A little fuckin' balloon.

Son your grandpa was the man who shot down a balloon in 2023.

son: whaaaaaa!!!!!! granpappy why you hate balloons! whhhaaaaa!

But son it was a Chinese balloon.

son: AAnd he hates chineese! you racists!!!

son: I'm going to go burn down a chinken farm!

[ - ] RobertJHarsh 7 points 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 18:16:12 ago (+7/-0)

I bet if the balloon were dropping GDL flyers the fucker would have been shot down way sooner.

[ - ] uvulectomy [op] 5 points 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 18:33:54 ago (+5/-0)

They would have shot it down, recovered the pieces, tracked their origin, and conducted raids/killed dogs before lunch.

Can't shoot it down where Cletus and his govt hating militia can have first looks at it...

[ - ] Anus_Expander 1 point 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 19:13:02 ago (+1/-0)

something simple: plutonium dust, or anthrax spores. Released at 60k feet, the wind does the rest. Impossible?

[ - ] TheYiddler 0 points 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 22:47:28 ago (+0/-0)

Anthrax exists naturally. A payload that high up would be to dispersed. Plutonium is unlikely due to its immense cost.

[ - ] Anus_Expander 1 point 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 22:49:59 ago (+1/-0)

Cost? The chinks dont fuckn care about cost, they want us weak.

Probably not. But it can cause fear that lasts generations.

If a regular person sent up a “weather balloon” it would be shot down in minutes

What if all sattelites are balloons? And the don’t want you to know…

[ - ] Cunt 1 point 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 17:25:13 ago (+1/-0)

I love how every sort of bizarre looking and unnatural looking UFO gets labeled a weather balloon, but this thing that looks exactly like a weather balloon I'm supposed to believe is a SPY balloon. As if china doesn't have better tech for spying.

[ - ] uvulectomy [op] 3 points 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 17:28:54 ago (+3/-0)

Pretty shitty spy device if your enemy knows its there.

[ - ] SilentByAssociation 1 point 1.3 yearsFeb 4, 2023 18:54:43 ago (+1/-0)

Have you seen the way their buildings and structures fall apart?

[ - ] Cunt 1 point 1.3 yearsFeb 5, 2023 00:51:25 ago (+1/-0)

Yeah, and like all Chinese made stuff they stand up long enough to be sold, so if the balloon was Chinese spyware, they could have just waited for the balloon to fall apart anyway.

But I believe they could make more advanced tech (provided they have something to copy), they might have to make a few to a get a fully functional one but when they do it will last long enough for one job.

I just don't buy this story. It's too weird. Like the radioactive pea sized thing that was super dangerous but not stored in any type of larger lead case and somehow just fell off the back of a truck. Both are weird news stories with more questions then answers.

Why would they spy on a country they already own, run, and control all forms of communication in... they have our cell phones under control

What if the balloon was full of plague? Better drop it in the salt water.

If it was it just dropped it all over.

They could have dangled a cable with a weak link behind a U2 and just cut the thing in half. No need for a debris field. It could have been done anywhere.

I found chinks had some research project back in November last year, with similar balloons
https://phys.org/news/2022-11-heavy-payload-balloon-near-space-heights.html

Maybe these balloons were just a lot of fear for nothing, hopefully not preconditioning for some future false flag event.

Now now now...

This is not the sort of hot potato you just shoot down if you know a goddamn thing about anything.


If I was watching this thing I'd quickly realize it is a spy balloon of some sort and then scramble some AWACS to monitor the shit out of what the hell it is doing and where it is sending it's info.

I get satellite codes, capture the data to analyze the encryption they use and make sure it doesn't go over anything important. I look at the frequencies they are using to transmit and just basically observe this new beast to learn from it... No cost.


Now... If I shoot it down immediately I get nothing but a diplomatic headache with china. Fuck that...

Monitor it... Wait until you have plausible deniability for losing it... And then take it out and very quietly recover it and analyze it.

You don't throw temper tantrums with super powers you silly faggot. You also collect Intel on new weapons if you can.

The Ukraine campaign is failing badly. They are at a decision point..exfil or escalate?

This is just to set up Plan B for WW3 depop event. I am confident if we ever find out anything trustworthy on the balloon(s) it will be obvious that BB/Obama III released them.

There was some faggot "analyst" on (((Fox News))) before the shoot-down talking about how they should "give the pieces to Blinken to give to Xi and tell him that "next time it's an act of war.""

Wtf are you talking about the house approved even more waste to Ukraine.

This is a money grift.

Don't get all stupid and think this is a conventional war about seizing territory. This is much more complicated and the timing of it is blatant wef fuckery to hide COVIDhoax in the fog of war.
All sides get to dispose of people that could make a difference rapidly by sending them to the frontline...think of it as the WEF garbage disposal.

Putin is in on the grift and his KGB training gives you the sweetest lies you ever desired to hear. But he is still in on the grift.

What Putin does now myopically... Just the battle side... Is use the winter and public opinion as a weapon and energy as a carrot.

Putin isn't going to give them the WW3 they want and he's kicking the shit out of them. They either have to escalate it or wrap it up as shortly their won't be anyone left to fight. They are conscripting 50 yros ffs.

As too the grift, maybe you haven't noticed but between to 100bils we've already and the COVID grift theres no more blood in that stone.
