The frequent assertions by WND don’t seem to have merit. It is very likely that Chinese missiles can leave a signature exhaust/vapor trial. But WND offers no expert analysis from an indentifiable source or for that matter verifiable radar tracking for the frequent postings appearing in FRs.
It’s an entertaining hoax driving FRs nutz and I’m laughing my phisteris off at the many speculations offered in these sundry postings. But would be very happy to change my mind if they come up with some solid stuff.
There are TWO missile trails. The news reporter says the one his crew filmed was “just like” the one they saw the previous day! They didn’t film the first one.
Why not a Korean missile? Why must it be Chinese?
I’m jumping in, and will say that missile was “ours”.
But I can't see - because it would be impossible - to cover up the NORAD, USN, and ATC activity that would have happened immediately, long before Zero (who was in Indonesia) could have issued orders to do so.
Unless you believe that we would not have gone to DEFCON 1 without orders, automatically, in response to such an event, how can you believe in a coverup?
I mean, there's been a system in place for 45 years to respond to a missile breaking the surface off the coast. Where was it?
We will all be in a world of crap when that boat returns next week with another one.
Who can say, this one might even hit the frikin continent.
Which one? The one in the video, or the one the reporter aw the day before?
The system functioned perfectly.
There was no missile.
Just some dink with a camera.
i guess my point is, do we not have a RADAR warning system pointed west? and if so, why hasn't it confirmed or rebutted the contrail claim???
if they know and aren't telling us, we're screwed
if they don't know, we're really screwed...
would our first/only notice be when something hits???
They know and are not talking. Hell, Utah Radar would have this, no problem.
Don’t modern airplanes have GPS transponders on them so it could have been immediately identified? That would save the Pentagon a two week long investigation that still has no firm conclusion.
Aww Heck! I forgot which one was being talked about.
that's my read too, which leads me to believe it really was a launch...
yup, their silence is deafening...
I’m old school and another poster had it right. That ain’t no atmospheric contrail, that is exhaust!
I’ll ask around. I have refrained hoping a definitive would come out. Give me a day or two. From Clark to Edwards I should get a good idea.
pls ping me... thx.
I just asked an engineer from Clark (Retired) if he has any info on it. I will wait for that response.
thx
I said from the beginning tha it was a Chinese missile.
