If you were out in the boonies, and you saw what looked like to you a UFO (but was a top secret military plane) at low altitude and you took some shots at it with your AR, I bet the FEDS wouldn't do anything about it even if you hit the plane.

IF they were to prosecute you, that would mean they are admitting they have this hi tech super secret military craft and it wouldn't be a secret anymore, huh?

I'll let you be the first to try that out.

and I'll tip a beer when I see your face on the side of a milk carton


ETA:  would this be a mod violating the CoC?

You would end up in working in Area 51 as permanent labor and never allowed to leave.

No, they would prosecute you with provisos that if you breath one word of whats going on, you do not pass go, do not collect $200, and go straight to jail. Besides, it's not like they would have to give out the technical specs of the Aurora or whatever to prosecute you; 'Experimental Aircraft' would more than likely be enough for any judge.

WTF? This is a hypothetical and sarcastic question, don't get your panties in a bunch.

You would be prosecuted for shooting a crop duster or some other type of mundane aircraft.

Your IP address is 168.125.1.1, your OS is Windows XP, how are you today Mr. Anderson?

You would be held under NSA ---------- acts -- not laws -- you just would disappear.

You're exactly right. I've actually done this, with absolutely no repercussions or retributions at all.

Just a second, I have to get the phone.

OK, I'm back.

What I meant to say was, why on earth would anyone do something like that? I would certainly never do it. Besides, I didn't see anything. It didn't happen. The government is here to help us.

If it was that secret wouldn't they just kill you?

Hey I wouldn't either, just a question about duality of the government.

Isn't one of those super secret Area 51 type bases in Colorado?  You see something on a hike in the woods?

There are alot of those places in the CONUS, many of them in plain sight. Remember, the TS community isn't reserved for the development of aircraft.

If you shot at some high speed aircraft with an AR everytime it passed for a year, I'll bet they'll never know.  Because the odds of you hitting it are a million to one.

Pfft!!! If you had been through the special marksmanship course they teach at BNCOC you'd hit it everytime.

What you need to do is have a squad size element lying down, side by side, and begin firing prior to it's approach so the plane flies into the fast mover.
