Theres not much debris from a 10 foot hobby ballon. Thery will not find any debris, otherwise people will know they spent $800K to shoot down 50$ in plastic and gas.

The same path the Japanese fire balloons took in 44 and 45.

Today was the first time I remember hearing about those balloons from Japan.

Where are those airborne lasers we’re supposed to have? Let’s give them a workout.

Chinese haven’t made us use up many of our weapons on dogfights in the sky or shipping them to Ukraine to waste there. Like the billions of dollars of equipment and weapons and ammo in Afghanistan by Biden’s heroic retreat there.

Weapons wasted.

Then, Taiwan gets invaded.

Could happen.

By the way, someone should invent a “balloon buster” weapon just for that purpose. Without missiles wasted.
