It started in mid-November. Residents in towns across New Jersey reported sightings. The large unidentified drones, some reportedly as large as cars, flew low and sometimes in formation with bright lights and loud hums, overwhelming once-peaceful nights.

Now, locals have more questions than answers as the mystery drone sightings continue — and seem to have spread

Coordinate a takedown of a drone, see who screams.
Then we’ll know.

"But even with the Federal Aviation Administration imposing new drone flight restrictions last month in some of the targeted areas, residents say the flying persists."

Impossible! The drone pilots are ignoring the federal government demands and regs? Who would NOT listen to Fedgov?

Well anyone can buy a drone these days.
They are all over the place.
I doubt if there's anything to worry about.

You make a good point; that is probably why they chose a blue state. NJ is California without the good weather.

Really have to wonder with a 1 trillion dollar defense budget just how these drones and spy baloons get access to US airspace. Who in the Federal government and why is it being permitted.

Late model drones have to broadcast serial numbers and linked to who owns then. These are military units as civilian drones can’t fly that long as these are staying up for much longer and even the Coast Guard is saying they observed some coming out of the water.

Question:

These drone sightings are along the coast.

If they were US drones wouldn’t they test them out in the desert, like around White Sands?

Or perhaps in the Pacific?

Why test in New Jersey and Pennsylvania?

Does it seem more likely someone is sending a message?

Plenty of people in Jersey have guns and would love to bag a drone but they also realize that shooting at a drone is a Federal Crime punishable by up to 20 years in prison.

Isn’t this what Space Force should be dealing with? What good is another department that has no mission behind its title? These drones are so far UFOs. I think much of this is hysteria and media spin but the Fedgov and the states act retarded and are not reassuring the people that they are safe.

Maybe they know exactly who the owner is, and prefer to avoid an interstellar war. Anything is possible given what little we know and the odd behavior of our government.

New Jersey is the most densely populated state in the USA and in the middle of the North East corridor. PLUS NJ is a nanny state where you are not allowed to defend yourself.

“I doubt it.”

Just wonder just how people like you think. What you doubt doesn’t change reality.

The size of the drones are widely reported.

Or they’re our own drones, they’re looking for a nuke, and prefer to play dumb.
Who knows at this point.
The Chinese spy balloons (plural) were allowed to do their thing and only one got splashed AFTER completing the mission.
The Biden admin has done so many stupid things, it’ll take 30 years to collect collate and catalogue it all.
