So I went into Unreal Engine and mocked this thing up to scale.

So here is a sphere 40m in diameter at 62,000 ft with a 1000mm lens.

Seems to check out.

It's probably some surveillance balloon monitoring the border I said I can traffic people or drugs or something again in the US was looking the other way until it was discovered.
Now they have to act like it wasn't theirs.

If it was not theirs they would have said so.

 Quoting: beeches


A superpower who has been watching every square inch of the US for years, around the clock, with million MP cameras on satellites that can actually see full spectrum and read the time on your watch in HD, suddenly decide to DRIFT A BALLOON over Norad Land - Home of air superiority

Why?

The SAT fleet is all in for oil change?

Kinda risky no???

Some slow ass, highly visible, hard to control, not very manoeuvrable, antiquated goofball tech drifting over Norad Land

Give your head a shake sister.

It's DOD.

You are going to war againt China in 2025.

Don't take the bait. Jesus.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 75483184


obviously Norad is not anymore the "Home of Air Superiority"

lol
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 80317847


It's DOD idiot and that's why it's there.

take a booster.

NORAD can demonstrably track a duck. Air superiority is the ability to shoot down anything this side of heaven, and those machines takes off from runways right here, so, why is that balloon there dummy?

its just the dumbest thing ever, lets fly a balloon over the USA with a chineese text on the balloon, i mean common, if it would be a "SPY" balloon it would not bear big chineese text on it first, second they would not even USE a balloon.

and then again, who says its a chineese balloon, just ooh we see chineese text on it so it must be chineese?

i call it BS just like the rest of every show the Biden Regime and the US government tries to pull each time.

It's a domestic operation to foment anger against the yellows for a war that's penned for 2025


They have 499 "KNOWN" satellites, some of which can read the time on your wrist watch. Are they all in the shop for oil and filter change? Why some goofy balloon?? Kind of risky huh????


This is NORAD land. HOME of air superiority. We can demonstrably track a duck with this gear. We are doing this balloon nonsense, tards.


You are reading this from the same networks who pushed russia gate, 19 goat fuckers with box cutters did 911, vax is safe and effective and on and on.

Re: BREAKING: China responds to US claims that it is flying a spy balloon over Montana.
People have been asking what the heck is attached to the balloon.

The biggest part are a set of solar panels which would supply power to the instrument package. My guess is that there is many sensors hanging from the balloon, including Synthetic Aperture Radar, hyperspectral infrared and a super high resolution visible sensor.

I doubt that the sensors are highly classified because they could be examined if they ever shoot it down. The high res visible sensor could be an array of normal HD camera focal planes. All the sensors would be the very latest in consumer technology.

Democrats say closing our airspace is xenophobic and that the balloon is just seeking asylum. Fleeing persecution. It would be as inhumane is shooting illegal border crossers to shoot down the balloon. After all we wouldn’t want to tear it away from its balloon family
