"China appears to have suspended its surveillance balloon program following a major diplomatic incident earlier this year, when one of the country’s high-altitude spy balloons transited the United States, multiple sources familiar with US intelligence assessments told CNN."

"The FBI concluded its analysis of the balloon’s remnants earlier this year, and the Pentagon announced in June that the US government assessed that the balloon did not collect intelligence while flying over the country."

Honestly imo the second quote, (read the article for more), that is a lot of behind covering going on. On both China and the US side. They also still refuse to release information about the 2 other shoot downs.

“The Pentagon shot down an unidentified object over frozen waters around Alaska on Friday at the order of President Biden, according to U.S. officials, less than a week after a U.S. fighter jet brought down a Chinese spy balloon over the Atlantic.” (gift article) https://www.nytimes.com/2023/02/10/us/politics/unidentified-object-shot-down-alaska.html?unlocked_article_code=FHz8qn2CKpmPrpeR73vYZohGKD-pH0KnU0mPKyVFclCPMzxESzYlX7hDEmQxZvWxhGznM3-QVOrq0UKaG6K1EpOoCAUL5lRICQ9ec0L3ikq3oDUuZgGFdRKaPeg4OZDQ5-CdTx0Op0JfXJis1WGK4G_EBxaZ9Bb30Ro5NwlLxMaWbfuXrxv9XvrHg4ip2AR2uzXd19vUqOR4W6hKCOKn6KgkKCkuI_l_kJPo1YReJbURVNj7LXsPEE_cx866gsnK4AqGZXmxMyiMi9w5U6i6Nhnh1Yxaq094mLU1Rv-Pnqx0C-GlWkKiEnS7pb2euuGubY91ezHCLy562pKhFlEksN64RiqjNpEmKwWw9qSNnM8TwA&smid=share-url

It was a 'Chinese weather balloon' and so were ALL THOSE OTHER 'uap' we've been forced to show you in the last 5 years.

I would prefer the pentagon be more specific..

The Untied States Air Force has shot down the Chinese Spy Balloon over the Atlantic Looking at the video it looks like they used a sidewinder missile. A good friend, Steve, let me know that the call sign was FRANK for CMH winner and WWI pilot Frank Luke aka "The Arizona Balloon Buster" Below are assets that may have been part of it including a USCG C-130, an E-4B and a KC-135 tanker #ChineseBalloon #China #spy #balloon #shotdown #shootdown #USAF Edit: added link to video https://twitter.com/elitedevon/status/1621957862988677120?s=20&t=PuWzHtml7RHjC7Qkdf31GA
