Flying was shot down in northern Alaska.US Department of Defense spokesman Lede said to observe the F-35 fighter aircraft before shooting down the flight.The pilot is determined that there is no one on the flying object, not like an airplane, not controlled.He said that although the flying objects are obviously similar to the Chinese spy balloon, there are no signs that these two incidents are related.
(Washington Composite Electric) The United States dispatched fighters again on Friday and shot down an unknown flight in Alaska.U.S. officials revealed that there was no evidence that the flight came from China, and the United States did not contact China on this matter.
The U.S. Department of Defense said that the official Thursday (February 9) discovered unknown flying objects through ground radar, and launched the F-22 Raptor fighter on Friday afternoon to launch the AIM-9X Skytail Snake Air-to-air missile.When the United States shot down the Chinese spy ball last week, it also used the same fighter and missiles.
Kobe: flight objects smaller than Chinese spy balloon
A spokesman for the White House National Security Council, Kobe, said that the size of this flight is about a small car, which is smaller than the shot down Chinese spy balloon.
He said that the flying object "has no effective load."He also said: "We don't know who it belongs to, it belongs to the country or enterprise ... we don't know its real use."
He revealed that the flight was flying at the northeast of 40,000 feet (more than 12,000 meters) at the northeast, which threatened the civil aviation transportation. The US President Biden ordered it to shoot it down.
Bayeng responded to the reporter's relevant questions at the White House that this operation was "successful", but he did not further explain the situation.
Ryide, a spokesman for the US Department of Defense, said that the United States was observed before the United States dispatched the F-35 fighter aircraft before shooting down the flight.The pilot is determined that there is no one on the flying object, not like an airplane, not controlled."We currently have no further details about the object, including any information about its ability, use or source."
Even if the flying object is observed for a day, the United States refuses to explain or speculate what it is, whether it is a meteorological or other purposes, which causes many questions from people.
Ryder said that although the flight and Chinese spy balloon have obvious similarities, there are no signs that the two incidents are related.He said: "I think all of us, including the media and the public, are currently paying very much attention to balloon incidents."
Kobe revealed that the flying object was shot down in northern Alaska, close to the US -Canadian border, and landed on the icing water.U.S. officials said that with Chinese spy balloon being hit behind and falling into the sea, it is much easier to recover the wreckage of flying objects on the ice.
Cerby said: "We really want to recover the wreckage."
After the fighter aircraft shot down the flight objects, some members of the United States praised Biden's decisiveness.Warnes, chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, said: "I am glad to see the president's behavior of invading the United States to lead the United States."
The United States shot down the Chinese giant balloon on the shore of the South Carolina last Saturday, and said that the electronic monitoring equipment was installed on the balloon, which belonged to a reconnaissance balloon fleet of the Chinese military.U.S. officials pointed out that these balloons flew over 40 countries and regions, of which at least four times over the United States.
Ryide revealed that the US recycling team has completed the scattered area of the Chinese balloon wreckage and "is looking for and identifying the wreckage of the sea floor."He said that the wreckage currently found has been loaded on the boat and then moved to the laboratory for follow -up analysis.
