No one has an answer still for the drones over New Jersey

Reports of Iranian warship off our coast

Chinese warships around Taiwan

Bombings in Syria to uproot Assad, only to hand it over to more terrorists

More Missile attacks on Russia, Putin vowing appropriate response

Now video of drone(s) over Barksdale, a key component of storing our nuclear arsenal - X video

Something is definitely afoot. And it can’t be good.

Someone needs to take one for the team and shoot one down. Then place it in an open field and see who comes to pick it up, if anyone

It makes no sense why this hasn’t happened already. Or why the official narrative is “no one knows”

Someone knows, damnit. They are lying to us again, to the surprise of absolutely no one.

Certainly there’s no way spies have come across the U.S. wide open borders over the past 4 years. No way.

Our military budget is what? Like $1 trillion? Their primary mission is to protect us from all enemies, foreign and domestic. And they aren’t doing it. Someone up the ladder is allowing it.

They want ww3 to kick off before Trump gets in office so they can blame that on him. They are doing everything they can to make it. Probably allowing some country to fly spot stones over bases to steal top secret data to make a quick buck before they get fired by Trump

Why didn’t the Biden admin take out the Chinese “weather balloon”?

They. Are. Owned.

This is the last gasp by their owners to gather intel before Trump comes in.

I wouldn't shoot a weapon over Military base. Why don't they turn on the static machines they have there that disrupts the weather?

I sent this video to one of my buddies who is at BAFB with top secret clearance
His response verbatim: “could be a random UAS. they sometimes fly over our airspace and we shoot them down”

Confirming what you just said. I have no idea why they aren’t shooting these things down.

From what I’m hearing there is no DOD directive or rules of engagement to deal with this, or another claim they’re making. I could believe it as we have very restricted ROEs in combat. So dumb.

If these are man made drones do you honestly think tgey would keep their position, formation and anti-collision lights on? Also do you think that the base wouldn't react to civilian aircraft?

My opinion is they can't figure out what these are.

You’re in the wrong thread, bud. This is where the adults are talking.

Haven’t really been keeping up with the drone news. Do they only come out at night or are people seeing them during the day as well. I work in Bossier and our office is right in the flight path when planes are coming in to land. May have to throw the old .270 in truck tomorrow and see if I can take one out …LOL

Why would you think they aren't? Are you expecting loud fire from munitions? Most anti-drone tech is more drones, laser, microwave, and denial of service to block GPS and wireless comms.

I sense you’re joking but I would highly recommend against that, just in case you aren’t. Your tax dollars pay our military to handle such matters. Which makes it all the more curious why they aren’t doing it.

ETA: seems like everyone disagrees with me so I guess all of you are correct, shoot it down. Good luck.
