But USA balloons very low tech and can't fly far or control like China balloons. At least China balloons can spy and study weather.

Why USA balloons so lousy?
According to Sgbutt, these balloons are very dangerous!  Rotfl

China can control the wind to blow the balloon to anywhere they want. It also carries a few nukes and COVID viruses. So if USA shoot it will die pain pain. Rotfl

If there are any more spy balloons, the US should use cannon fire to bring down the balloon instead of using the AIM-3 sidewinder missiles it is more economical thus......... Big Grin
The latest one is the size of a small car. Does it look like the one just on top?
