Another UFO has been shot down after a US Senator confirmed an 'incident' over Lake Huron today. We'll be bringing you the very latest updates, pictures and video on this breaking news story.

Tom….it’s sad watchin whats developing with
this weak incompetent administration.
The F-14 back seater had a way to "see" BVR, I was told long ago. Could be true.
In any case the scenario the weapon system was designed for was an anti-ship cruise missile attack on the carrier or escorts, air-launched from Russian bombers. Such an attack would normally be first detected and verified by a dedicated flying radar platform, so there wouldn't be much mystery about the nature of the target. The Phoenix could reach out and engage either the Russian bombers or the missiles they launched.
if this were trump he would be accused of racism for shooting them down!

LOLOLOL... oh my!! Had that sung at our wedding in February 1959!!

A sensible thought!!!!
Even if they were ET’s..... WHY would they land here lol.....
“Guns” are not very effective against balloons or semi-rigid airships. The rounds just pass through the cloth, creating small holes relative to the volume of the supporting gas. Tracers would probably ignite hydrogen, but after the Hindenburg, nobody uses hydrogen any more.
A few years back the Canadians tried pumping ~1000 20mm cannon rounds at a balloon. It took the thing 3 days to come down.
They intercepted an old TV transmission of Jackie DeShannon and went into Jimmy Castor mode...
More seriously, I’d guess curiosity. If life is a rarity, it’s occurrence should inspire interest...
Realistically though, this is probably China trying out a few things.
I’ve been trying to master Arabic for 40+ years. It’s very similar linguistically to Hebrew, but phonetically it has so many strange sounds, plus such a big gap between the colloquial and the written language, that I doubt I ever will get the hang of it. But one tries and tries and tries.
...so we hit it with a missle and blew it to smithereens making any indentification or study of the object impossible.
When we flew SR-71 or U-2 spy planes over other countries, was that an act of war as well?
We flew so many balloons over the Soviet Union that they had to develop a special fighter to shoot them down
Hebrew does seem much easier from what I have heard. My Japanese is pretty good and that is almost identical grammatically to Korean although Korean pronunciation is way harder (despite being entirely phonetic) which would be a major stumbling block for me. Japanese sounds are mostly a subset of the sounds of American English. Just learn whatever you have a passion and interest in.
This is either a very serious situation that could affect the entirety of mankind or the latest is a series of incredible ruses/distractions.
What’s really crazy is a nearly complete lack of interest on social media.
And, no apparent attempts to communicated with it. Maybe it was a friendly object. If it was, its cohorts are no longer friendly.
The whole thing is, of course, diversionary and False-flag-ish in the midst of a war in Ukraine, bidEt laptop exposure, and actually part of the take-down of the eneMedia.
IMHO, I don’t believe destroying our electronic infrastructure would behoove China. The probability of mutual destruction should make them think twice.
Or it’s just another facet of the “Great Reset”
you can pick and choose whatever you want to believe
Government is good at the lie...
Eh? Well, there sure are enough threads and comments on You Tube....
That would make a decent sport dive without special equipment.
