Far more intriguing – and deserving of the intense media scrutiny afforded China’s ill-fated balloon – are U.S. military encounters with mysterious flying objects exhibiting seemingly extraordinary technology.
Take, for example, the 2004 “Tic Tac” incident, which continues to perplex the U.S. government. Over the course of several days, a Navy warship’s state-of-the-art radar tracked mysterious targets descending from high altitudes at extreme velocities. Controllers ultimately directed two fighter jets to intercept one of the perplexing radar contacts.
Just above an area of roiling whitewater amid an otherwise calm sea, four naval aviators observed a strange object with no wings, control surfaces or means of propulsion maneuvering in jaw-dropping ways. The mysterious craft then darted off at extraordinary speeds shortly after a Top Gun-trained squadron commander chased it. The apparent physics- and aerodynamics-defying performance left the stunned aircrew believing that the object “was not from this world.”

This begs an obvious question: How does an object with no wings or apparent means of propulsion fly at tens of thousands of feet, let alone accelerate instantaneously to hypersonic velocities?

If, for the sake of argument, an adversarial foreign power developed and deployed technology rendering its surveillance platforms invisible in early 2014, the media’s lack of interest or investigative reporting amounts to a staggering journalistic failing.
Why, for example, have reporters not hammered successive Pentagon press secretaries with questions about the seemingly invisible objects encountered frequently by highly trained aircrews? Could this journalistic reticence be rooted in a lack of knowledge of the incidents? Perhaps the stigma and “giggle factor” long associated with UFOs are to blame. (Of course, if an adversarial power like China possessed “cloaking” technology, it would have no need to sail a giant, lumbering balloon over the United States.)

Let’s see. The murderous Chicoms are intent on destroying civilization, but, “Look! Shiny red UFO dot!”
We know full well wherein The Hill’s sympathies lie. And ‘lie’ is the operative word.
The Hill has gotten worse by orders of magnitude.
Tic tac probably a real weather balloon.
Now we have identified the problem: Our military cannot see a balloon the size of the Empire State Bldg., so how are they going to see a UFO?
Well, UFO sightings may be far more intriguing, but they’re not threatening. If they’re here, they’re here to observe our “anthill”.
No clear and close photos no UFO’s.
Why, with the years of cell-phone photography, have we not seen a clear image of these UFOs. What we do see is blurry, specks in the sky that could be Chinese spy vehicles using advanced, super secret, aeronautics technology. Our government wants us to believe the fairy tale space ships from other worlds BS. The top secret reality is kept top secret.
That’s scary. Bumble’n Slow Biden sh-ts in his seat and does nothing.
Yep. And since they dropped the Disqus commenting, I seldom go there. The commenting was a lot of fun - tweaking the mods and snowflakes.
Over the course of several days, a Navy warship’s state-of-the-art radar [AN/SPY-1, an advanced, automatic detect and track, multi-function phased-array radar] tracked mysterious targets descending from high altitudes at extreme velocities.
Can you believe these Navy nincompoops didn't take photos and send them to Free Republic.
I, for one, am flabbergasted!
And which branch of the U.S. military do we hear the LEAST from when there is a space-based situation? (Well, some say the Tic Tacs are alien ships …)
Why, the U.S. Space Force, of course!
Not once have I heard a peep from Space Force, about anything. I don’t even know what their uniforms look like. If there is a prize for the WORST public relations crew in the military, Space Force would win it annually.
The other branches boast thousands of stories, heroic and otherwise. Space Force, not so much.
Agree
And, as the story goes, if you saw something, they paid you a visit and threatened you with dire consequences if you told anyone.
I'm not saying what kind of intel they are withholding (because I don't know), but they obviously don't want to share.
There are lots of clear and close photos of UFOs.
Unfortunately they are classified and you do not have the clearance to see them.
Speaking of...when humans build a road they don't worry about any anthills that might be in the path.
If there are lots of clear and close photos of UFOs why don’t the show them they have been hyping their existence foe a year.
Sounds like nothing but a scam for money for another one of their dark programs.
NO SALE
There is a long history of UFOs and .gov reaction to them.
Here is one of my favorite incidents—the year I was born:
