Quoted: Xi called Joe and told him to show off our aircraft capabilities real quick and how they communicate before they shoot it down because the Chinese didn't collect enough data yet. Might as well teach them how our planes fly and communicate. They already got a sneak peak over all the AFB's in the Midwest. View Quote Judging by the map it flew directly over Malmstrom on the way in. Should have ended right there. |

Quoted: Anyone have eyes on Taiwan? China could have moved in by now for all we know View Quote I lived in Taiwan from 2000-2002, they know a Chinese take over is going to happen eventually (even back then). They even joke about looking at the presidential palace and parliament to see which flag is flying every morning. Honestly, their only hope is that it's a quiet take over. |

I guess the plan is to splash it in shallow water to aid recovery ?
Or, does it need to be 400 miles out to sea for safety reasons ? |

Quoted: "Well out of fighter jet ranges" Mah dude. That thing is easily in sidewinder range. The eagle (never mind the F-22) has been over 98,000 feet. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted: Quoted: So some sources are saying these balloons are 80-120k feet up, well out of fighter jet ranges. Are these people just trying to bait us into bringing out something they consider super secret to shoot them down? Fucking news media "Well out of fighter jet ranges" Mah dude. That thing is easily in sidewinder range. The eagle (never mind the F-22) has been over 98,000 feet. An F-15 at 98000 feet is as useful as a five pound rock in your hand against a fly 30 yards away. Flights above 60000 feet require pressure suits to guard against sudden decompression. The flight requires careful manipulation of the controls and an eagle eye on airspeed. The ceilings reported in the manufacturer spec sheets are for fan boy consumption, not practical or useful operation of the airplane. I almost forgot - Oooooh, "fast movers"! lol |

The light blue plane being tracked in the flight radar image doing a dog leg south from Charlestown is a KC135 tanker. It looks like he maybe going into a holding pattern now.

Quoted: LIVESTREAM! View Quote I drove out to MB just to come to a Chinese restaurant of all things with one of my daughters. LOL I'm trying to get on an image hosting site to post my pictures of the jets loitering and taking lines at the thing but the one I use is fucking gone down for me right now conveniently |

After the balloon has completed its mission Biden will destroy the balloon for them. The parts will probably be sent off to Area 51 and never heard from again or mailed back to China.

Quoted: It's sadly funny how this balloon is holding the nation hostage View Quote There's two types of people excited about this: 1) The pussies that are looking up and saying "oh my gaaaaaaawd!!! they are spreading something or something"! 2) "The fuck we didn't shoot that motherfucker down the second it entered into our airspace? Fuck china. If the world didn't know we were weak, they know now". I think most of us fall into the second group. |

As long as they get all the other air traffic down. |
