Amazons new delivery system being tested perhaps ........

Nothing a little EMP can't fix.

But of course, they belong to Iran.
A congress person so stated.

Better be beamed or airlines may start falling out of the sky.

Was reading tonight, a Chines person, maybe two were arrested on espionage charges for flying a drone near Vandenburg, base in California.

A mothership....

>>>Pentagon officials immediately refuted claims by US Rep. Jeff Van Drew, a New Jersey Republican, that the drones were from an Iranian “mothership” off the East Coast of the US.

“There is not any truth to that,” deputy Pentagon press secretary Sabrina Singh said. “There is no Iranian ship off the coast of the United States, and there’s no so-called mothership launching drones towards the United States.”<<<

Why is it always a "mothership?" No father ships out there? Why not?

And, of course, they will deny it.

Well, ya know, they don't need men anymore, right? Drone-birthing craft?

It’s really difficult to focus on a bright object at night at an unknown distance so I bet most of this is simply aircraft. Also there’s got to be a ton of copycats out there now rigging all kinds of lights to drones just for kicks and giggles. That said I think there are a couple legitimate unidentified flying objects (drones) that are not civilian. Early reports they were flying in search patterns near military bases and Trumps home. Also Constant Phoenix isn’t showing any reported flight logs and out of the three aircraft one is always airborne. Someone is looking for something and they don’t want the public to know, doubt we’ll ever get the truth on this one and I’m guessing we’ll all sleep better not knowing.

Reports from California, U.K (RAF/USAF bases) and other European countries as well. It's weird and I'm sure it's both being overblown on social media and radio silence by the Feds.
I was stationed at Fort Huachuca years ago where they stood up the drone pilot schoo,l so there was never a shortage of Predators and surveillance UAS in the sky. Can't imagine what they are messing with now.

My son in law was flying Reapers and the little he could tell me they blow the Predator drones out of the water. Much of their capabilities are against a bunch of laws to even test or train in the US, I guess everyone gets mad if all their high end audio gear suddenly quits working. Then there’s surveillance, bla, bla bla… oh yeah and they’re armed too. None of that compares to what DARPA and RAND is up to but as advanced as some of that stuff is it’s probably too expensive to become production military equipment. I’ve talked to defense contractors and when they test new equipment they aren’t allowed to ask who other people are or what they’re doing, get threatened if they look in the wrong direction for too long, yes it’s really a thing.

In other news supposedly the military will be testing radio and radar takeovers between now and Christmas, where the military takes control of all electronic communications. Supposed to be happening in blocks and not all at once so they don’t disrupt the country. People are having a hay day with conspiracy theories on that one. Yes the military does have authority to actually do it if an emergency meats certain requirements. What’s really cool is they have figure out how to use STARLINK for military GPS and communications. 6700 STARLINK satellites vs 31 GPS satellites, would make it tough on China or Russia to mess with us with that kind of a backup system.

Im not much into conspiracies but there are facts. I just think a conspiracy is drawing a stupid conclusion using facts.

So the roofing company has a Mavic pro. I need a beach ball, a couple color changing led strips. I wonder if a harmonica mounted below each propellor would work?

give me ideas, opportunities like these don’t come along very often

Here’s a very dangerous and illegal prank done in Scandinavia (possibly by Russian operatives): Take a very small Chinese style silk balloon, put on some aluminum folie and let it loose near targets. Watch the ensuing chaos while the government hunts you down.

A counter-measure is to reduce the sensitivity of radars but then drones could be undetected. Ukraines brave defense shows the folly of that.

As of drones in combat to devastating effects just look at the Russian murderous aggression in Ukraine with both sides using them. Or for sure changed Cold War tactics using armored vehicles.

But airports have been saying that there was no air traffic where the 'drones' were said to be flying.

I have to think there are ways to scan for RF activity, whether it involves data or not. We can transmit RF in a focused pattern in order to disable electronics- why hasn't this been done? What about the military LASER weapons? A quick burst and it falls out of the sky.

What RF? Just putting something up in the air that reflects radar is enough to shut down an airport.
