Red River Valley Amateur Radio Club
Amateur Radio in and around the Red River Valley Area of Northeast Texas
All,
OK, we have all been fascinated to read about the Chinese balloon that was allowed to wander all over for a week before being shot down. Then three more scary objects were shot down. Reports of sensor jamming, shape-shifting and optical chicanery abounded. Uh, well, maybe not.
No less respected authority than Aviation Week & Space Technology just put this out – Hobby Club’s Missing Balloon Feared Shot Down By USAF – oops. Some fighter pilots are going to be quietly going out and taking the UFO decals off of their jets.
Those pesky ham radio guys caused quite the stir! LOL At $400k per pop AIM9 missiles are not cheap. Impressive to me is that our fighter types could hit a pico balloon with one of them. Impressive!
Enjoy,
Phillip
You have GOT to be kidding me!!! ????????♀️????????
guess they forgot to load the cheap bullets
