Won’t the jets stall out if they track a slow moving blimp?

Stall?
Naw, dirty it up, come in slow over the top, ease back and light the burner to melt a hole in the top.

Save the 20MM for ISIS.
Wait, that would be 23....

They use a special flight path that makes a lot of 'Z' shaped turns. Same way they track a little, slow Cessna.

That was my understanding, anyway.

Someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

As soon as it gets over an unpopulated area the jets are going to shoot it down. There goes $180 million down the toilet. Somebody is going to be on latrine duty for the duration.
