Spy Balloon

far more often than you.

That’s an inappropriate and ignorant reply. It’s not about me, as much as you would like that. Narcissist!

I bet that Jewish Space Laser can shoot it down by God. Call up the Rothchilds.....

Sorry they said it changed course and is maneuverab;le that doesn't sound like it is a t the whim of the wind and they said it is a surveillance ballon

Balloons are only maneuverable in that they can adjust their altitude. Which ever way the wind is blowing at that particular altitude is where they will go. Like I said, the reason that they hold the international balloon festival in Albequerque NM is because of the wind conditions and the way the mountains are around it. Depending on what altitude a person is at, they can fly all the way around the valley and return to roughly the point that they took off from.

So many excuses in the msm. Must be ulterior motives in play.

Did our bloated and very expensive military fail to track this thing before it arrived over Montana?

Take it up with the Pentagon that is not what they said

I detect the phrase "Let's Go Brandon" printed on the balloon's side.....

Why don't we shoot it down?

Actually, suitcase bombs currently don't exist at a large enough yield to make the 5kt that you are proposing. Everything that I've seen on the 'net says that they can only get up to around 0.19kt. Do you have a link that says a 5kt nuke can weigh less than 300 lbs?

The lightest nuclear warhead ever acknowledged to have been manufactured by the U.S. is the W54, which was used in both the Davy Crockett 120 mm recoilless rifle-launched warhead and the backpack-carried version called the Mk-54 SADM (Special Atomic Demolition Munition). The bare warhead package was an 11 by 16 inches (280 by 410 mm) cylinder that weighed 51 pounds (23 kg).

The W48 nuclear shell is 155 millimetres (6.1 in) in diameter and 846 millimetres (33.3 in) long and weighs 53.5 kilograms (118 lb). It represents the smallest diameter complete, self-contained physics package to be fielded and had a yield of 72 tonnes of TNT (300 GJ). Nuclear weapons designer Ted Taylor has alleged that a 105 millimetres (4.1 in) diameter shell with a mass of 19 kilograms (42 lb) is theoretically possible.[21]

Former Under-Secretary of Defense for Intelligence Michael G. Vickers has claimed that he, along with other Green Berets special forces troops, practiced infiltrating Warsaw Pact countries with backpack-sized nuclear weapons, with a mission to "detonate a portable nuclear bomb."[22] These were known as Green Light Teams.[23]

In 1994, the United States Congress passed The National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 1994, preventing the government from developing nuclear weapons with a yield of less than 5 kilotons, thereby making the official development of these weapons in the US unlawful. This law was repealed in the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2004.[24][25]

SO, the smallest device we have is .75kt, more than adequate to create an EMP when configured correctly and only 125lbs.

Trump is not President. If he had been this enemy CCP spy balloon would not have made it past the Aleutian Islands.

They were flying over the USA when tRump was president. Where they just unimportant then.

got any proof of that??

Successful dry run of bioweapon delivery mechanism.

Oh, and spying on us.

And EMP delivery systems

Chinese EMP Payloads could be more adept to EMP than what we have today

 

[ozro]

If it was over Ukraine we would have sent us fighter jets to blow it out of the sky, even over cities.

US media is making more of a fuss over an *alleged* Chinese spy balloon flying over Montana than when americans bombed the Chinese embassy in Yugoslavia.

 

[BackAgain]

Shoot it down.

When you look at the payload under this balloon... It raises a huge number of questions. Not only a nuclear device but a biological warfare one as well. Not hard to drop dry virus into the jet stream and seed a very large area.

The Love message was a joke... funny as hell though.
