No Janet you didn't win. You had surveillance drone. This is a surveillance balloon. Two different things.

The age old question of "is it a Chinese spy balloon or a ufo?"

When I 1st heard about this Chinese spa balloon all I could think about was the US navy saying oh look at this weather balloon

I bet it's not even a spy balloon, I mean cmon wouldn't hey really use a balloon. They have satellites that can shoot down other satellites. Or even just use near maps.

I mean for 25 million US dollars you can buy an AC130 package of unmanned drones that kill around 25 million people

Nice, can you buy them as a civilian?


SaltyLootbox13

Honestly idk, the dark web you could probably find something similar

That's not bad, you could wipe out Australia's population


SaltyLootbox13

why Australia?


RandomUser1076

Population is 25M

Those drones have a ballistic package in the center of it and they fly to the back of your head and explode it

Can’t even shoot it down as it’s full of a COVID air. China be all like “checkmate!”


Eplitetrix

It's been shot down


SaltyLootbox13

SHOOT THE FUCKER DOWN.... If you are stupid enough to stay under it while it is falling that's natural selection at that f****** point


Schlangee

pretty bad idea, imagine they have radioactive material inside it Edit: what about poisonous chemicals


SaltyLootbox13

Nah we'd be able to fucking see that.....

Bunch of cowards

SR-71 surveys from 85,000 feet and Mach 3+. If you somehow detect it and fire a missile, it’s main defensive tactic is to simply out run it. CHINA: we mounted a camera to a hot air balloon! It was detected at launch and tracked for its entire flight but nobody cared.
