Sample the jet stream or steering currents at altitude find what's needed then send out c130's or something similar from Guam loaded with massive numbers of smaller balloons for a release to fly over China?

From India? Russia? Weather moves west to east so Indonesia? Taiwan? That would start if off big time.

Plus it would take these idiots years to develop what the Chinese have.

They just said bout the Harve Montana object that out F22s can't tract a balloon at night!!!!

They are smarter than we are. They are sending something that we never prepared for. Next one a EMT?

It does? Doesn’t it depend on hemisphere and latitude? All those hurricanes I’ve lived through came from the East.

If that were the case typhoons would never hit China. You release the balloons at the proper altitude into those steering currents.

We have bases on Okinawa, Guam South Korea and Japan that could all stage such missions.

Why do we need to release balloons to fly over China?

I am not sure why a balloon is preferable to a satellite or drone.
