I often thought the Chinese spy balloon that Biden allowed to traverse the heartland unmolested could have been a trial run for a bioweapon attack on America’s food supply.

Not even close to a realistic way. Come on be logical a giant balloon with a SUV sized payload with solar wings bigger than a tennis court. It stands out on radar like a barn door. It’s slow, not very maneuverable either.

The way yo deliver biological is via drones specifically mid sized rear propeller driven drones you can launch from a pick up truck bed via a ramp. 500lbs or so, enough fuel for nearly a thousand miles of range while carrying a hundred or more lbs of liquids to spray right in the proof wash. Small enough and low enough plus made of nearly all plastics and composites so very low radar signature. This is how you disperse a biological. They could just bring them to the Mexican border pay off the narcos and fly then northwards in 5 hours or less they would be over the Great Plains. There is little that could be done to stop a mass drone attack like that the area to cover would swamp any Air National Guard coverage and sidewinders nor AMRAAM would be all that effective against such a small slow target. Cannons would work but you could bring shipping containers with thousands of them to hundreds of launch points all along the border. One hundred diesel.trucks = 100 launch platforms at 500lbs each drone a shipping container could carry at least 50 of them folded up they would be volume limited not mass.

As for these researchers they work at a lab already studying this kind of fungus, and one of them worked with it at their parent lab. Plus this fungus already exists in North America. While it makes a sensationalist headline it is not likely a grand plot of agriculture doom. Why would the CCP send researchers. They would just send drones with the payload. Ships off shore could do the same thing how many container ships come in and out. Hell the USA lost an Iranian drone ship off the cost of NJ and NY that was already in tracked from Iran for weeks before the.coast guard noticed it then lost it.

For human pathogens they will just do exactly what they did with covid infect some travelers and send them over via domestic aircraft they have a billion plus to sacrifice for the cause what’s a few thousand carriers sent on holiday or returning students who may not even know they were infected by the CCP.

Nukes are 20th century the next major war will be biological via AI drones.

The main ethnic group in China. When you think of Chinese it’s Han Chinese. The only real human beings on Earth. All others are inferior and little better than animals.
