Im trying to be ultra-conservative here and gauge the truthfulness or lack thereof of the DoD's thoughts. Both Ryder and Singh have never seemed concerned about the drones over Langley, and now our bases are in the UK. They both stressed that they did not appear hostile or seem to have hostile intent. If there was concern there would likely be overt signs so far there don't seem to be Black Hawks or F-35s buzzing the "threat" which is our normal MO when we have other countries invade our airspace
I can easily see one secret and compartmentalized segment of the military and industrial complex developing some wildly unknown tech and getting or usurping authority and congressional oversight and testing said technology against the security of our bases. It's easily the most likely scenario percentage-wise, but it doesn't mean Im not 100% stoked about the other possibilities and concerned like my son-in-law said. "Sure it's amazing if it isn't "US" but it can be scary AF too…
Hell on some levels I would be disappointed if America didn't have these ultra-secret black op departments, when we know Russia, China, and North Korea do. All the while knowing the American MIC has a knack for secret developmental programs in and out of war time.
I agree to most. I do think we are reverse engineering tech. I think we have some working tech. I just don’t think these are ours.
That this might be China or Russia using their reverse engineered tech would be interesting twist…
