It had collected all the information the CCP wanted once it was over the Atlantic, so their foreign agent Brandon was free to take it out.

The payload self destructed. We probably got nothing. Watch the video it clearly falls faster than the balloon and breaks up

So are they going to catch the proceeds of the shoot-down?
Or will they let seawater purge it of all value to the defense and intelligence communities.

Wow. That was a close one. Imagine if it been over the CONUS.....

- Or - it self-destructed over the Atlantic to prevent anyone looking at the technologies aboard it after it had completed its spy mission.
I don't give Biden and his goons credit for anything.

If you look at the payload falling, it appears that there are a series of small flashes (explosions ?) as it breaks up and trails the chassis structure that presumably held the power panels and sensors

And now impossible to recover whatever tech was being used. And it has been wiped, like with a cloth.

I saw FOX weekend Host sucking up to Biden.
The network that refused to ask Joe about Hunter in a Presidential Debate.
And announced it wouldn’t happen beforehand.
