- Ask what? Gringo ever asked shit... Make war, make profit, bingo!OBBTKN
- Value of balloon made in china = probably $100k
value of missile and plane flight time that shot it down = $5Mgrafician - Raising more conspiracy... priceless.AQUTE
- waiting for the second one to pop
currently somewhere over latin americagrafician - Hopefully not too south ^maquito
- this ofc was probably not a chine se spy ball oon so yeah
< from this img it was at least 10 times the size of a F-22grafician - https://vm.tiktok.co…prophetone
- A second Chinese spy balloon was recently discovered flying over South America.utopian
- value of intelligence protected by shooting it down = never to be disclosedBuddhaHat

- Thought they waited a day or 2 before shooting it down. That's plenty restraint from Americanpango
- Do you know how many rockets the US fires in tests each day, they don’t give a shit about one (costing $5M)NBQ00
- Isn’t this balloonism? When are we going to wake up to rights balloons have?shapesalad
- @crazyprick Um.. you have read about this right? They let it float across the entire country before shooting it down. They were jamming its coms with swarms..garbage
- ..all the way across the country. Also, that thing is comically large. Pick your favorite sports team. Their arena and fans would cozily fit inside.garbage
- We also have these, but they tend to be on loiter mode around our coasts.garbage
- The balloon was China trying to smuggle fentanyl into USA...?shapesalad
- I thought they would try to intercept it, not shoot the fucker downcrazyprick
- ^ They likely rendered it useless when it got close to the west coast, then slowly bounced it out of the country and then killed it as humanly as possible..garbage
- ..in order to see what tech they're using. My two cents from the armchair.garbage
- ^^ that wouldn't send the desired message.sted

- why didn't they try to let him talk?Beeswax
- *humanely, lolgarbage
- And that tech will talk. If you're really bored, look up Raven Aerostar. Up until last year they were working with Alphabet.garbage
- They specialize in balloon surveillance constellations, and have been floating balloons around our coasts for quite a while.garbage

- It's pretty likely that China sent one over to see the response, we nursed it to the east coast and are currently dissecting it to find out what it can find outgarbage
- eh Aerostar lol i forgot about those guys :)
it wasn't like that they are providing internet access to rural areas? :Dsted - lol NORAD tracks anything flying on Earth and in space, question is why they allowed it to fly that far over US soilgrafician
- Or maybe not?
