Showing Original Post only (View all)Balloon Debris Recovery...NO word on ANY discovery?? What's taking so long?? [View all]
https://nypost.com/2023/02/05/navy-divers-recovering-chinese-balloon-debris/Note the graphic spy balloons rendered essentially obsolete cause of spy satellites.
..
Navy divers are now performing the fairly easy task of recovering the remnants of the Chinese spy balloon shot down over the Atlantic, as the entire Senate is set to be briefed on China next week.
The balloon was shot down by a F22 fighter jet over Myrtle Beach, SC, and landed in just 47 feet of water, which should make its recovery relatively easy, US officials said.
Cops in Horry County, where the balloon was shot down near, warned residents that members of the US Military are coordinating to collect debris; however, fragments may make it to the coastline.
..
Wheres the camera and hard drive info? Not saying its not a spy satellite trust but verify citizens! Especially your trillion dollar a year military!
Prove its a spy balloon show America the beef!

Unless you are in a position to do something about what is found, it's really none of business.

It's a shiny object. A big nothing. Any intelligence data has already been collected. n/t

Are you saying that the Chinese are part of a conspiracy to distract from the jobs report?

Why do you expect that? What other intelligence and military info do you "expect" to be made public
