Chinese Balloon

[Topstrap]

So now we have a Chinese Balloon floating lazily over Montana. Just happened to be reading a thread here on the Hide about the grid and what an EMP detonation would do. Surprised everyone isn't in panic mode. Guess the egg plants burning down is in the spotlight at the moment. Never a dull moment.

WTF is with our woke military leaders. They are not gong to take it down because they are worried about debris?
What a bunch of pussies.

Even bigger pussies they won't bring it down softly.

I see that fucking thing 120 miles to the west of Billings I will shoot it down to investigate

What in the fucking fuck? When did it become ok for foreign aircraft to be in our airspace and we just shrug our shoulders? The motherfuckers "in charge" need to be hung.

Kid and saw it yesterday 140 miles northwest of Billings. Floated right over a minute man missile base im our pasture.
Thought it was weather balloon. Looked through bino's and it was silver and really high. They have been working on all the missiles around here for several weeks. Figured it was one of ours.

I dont even trust that its the Chinese. I wouldnt doubt its our own Govt doing shit it aint supposed to do

Might be a bit of a weird one but if they can float a balloon like that couldn't they perhaps put an EMP capable device on it

???

If I lived by that place I would poach the shit out of it at night and sleep like a baby during the day.

The hotshot model rocketry guys could take that thing out if they are allowed to. Only issues are aiming and guidance and directional adjustment thrusters.




China is literally playing the Chinese national elementary school pasttime called 'torment the retarded kid' with Biden right now. They KNOW that mofo won't do shit and doesn't dare do shit. If Trump is in office right now, that balloon would have long ago been brought down, and it's components taken apart, penises drawn all over them, and mailed right back to them via Fedex's cheapest freight option, boxes stained with urine by the time they get on the plane.

Imagine if they are growing stuff for their own use on it, and somebody, in Minecraft of course, treats them to a nice little game of "tell the difference between water hemlock and regular carrots"... That'll be a pity...

Dangit, had a bunch typed up and lost it. Oh well.

Nasa was running one of there U-2's a week ago at 60K feet. It was kinda odd I thought, as upstate NY in overcast winter is not ideal for collecting info. An Orion was tracking below at 20k. Probably unrelated.

Is something going on in Ukraine?

So the “ mean” tweets are back... sweet.

Bet the balloon goes to western Dakotas or Cheyenne Warren missile fields next. After that, Whiteman? Offutt? Barkesdale? What are our most valuable assets for a recon platform we seem unwilling to challenge? Very strange. Milley must be getting fat checks for not shooting the damn thing down.

Of course we have balloons aplenty up there...

Tell the ATF it is a shipment of auto sears piloted by a unarmed, nursing mother.

It will get blasted right quick.

 

[Cardboard55]

May have been posted earlier, somehow doesn't seem like they had planned for that thar balloon to be where it be




Guess Lockmart and Boeing will be rushing some new multibillion programs into the queue to save us from the ancient Chinese secret balloons...

Is there Anything China can see using high atmosphere Balloon ? . That they can NOT see by Satellite ?. So why the CCP use a Balloon for Mil. surveillance ?

Bio-Delivery weapon by Balloon, is that out of the question with those Commi Fucks after everything we have went threw and seen past few years ??? . Apparently the USA Gov. really does not give a shit if CCP floats large objects over it's land mass . So why would the CCP not ?

Facebook immediately punished me for uploading this image of Hunter Biden and the balloons.

So far Facebook hasn’t responded to my image upload with Hunter edited out with red

would they be so kind as to throw up a few screenshots of that there laptop???

So, where the fuck did it get launched from?

I find it hard to believe that it would have started its journey all the way from China and if so, why was it not detected and shot down over the ocean?

If it was launched from Canda or Mexico, why have bombs not been dropped on the launch site are we not a sovereign nation anymore?

Chinese spy balloon tracked over northern US: Pentagon

The US has been tracking a Chinese spy balloon that has been floating over the northern part of the country for days, Pentagon officials announced Thursday.

nypost.com

"Pentagon press secretary Brig. Gen. Patrick Ryder told reporters in a brief statement that the balloon is“currently traveling at an altitude well above commercial air traffic and does not present a military or physical threat to people on the ground.”

Gee, that's comforting.

Winds aloft vary in speed and direction. My guess is the balloons adjust altitude to catch favorable winds.

From a practical standpoint, aside from potentially being able to sniff out low level RF signals, the loitering optical and IR detection capabilities would make it easy to detect anyone on the ground, especially moving. Weather permitting, of course. For example over the missile fields they could check all sorts of things, security patrols, shift changes, things that get guards attention and things that don't (wouldn't be surprised if CCP confederates on the ground were subtly probing during overflights. No bueno.

Will be interesting to see if their second balloon is identical or optimized for something else.

I seem to recall at an altitude of 60k feet, the balloons can 'see' and 'hear' several hundred miles in any direction. Area underneath would yield the clearest pictures and strongest radio signals. Multiple balloons can triangulate.

There has to be other ways to bring these balloons down besides shooting them with missiles or guns out of aircraft like dragging some kind of wrecking device behind a C-130 and let it fly into these balloons.

So the real question is… while we are all fixated on hop sing balloon… what are they doing in DC that we are missing? Or Davos?

Look at the shiny object while we ignore Mitch McConnell removing people from committees and new Biden corruption along with hundreds of “died suddenly”‘each week?

Nothing to see there. Ohhhh look… a pretty balloon!

Someone needs to photoshop this thing next to a sewer with xi Pooh looking out.
