Right, so even if you go with 'US Secret/Private Govt Tech Test', you still end up with questions about how they can power and maneuver such large 'drones' - silently (in at least some instances), and slowly - within the inherent limits of known 3D tech... questions that can probably only be answered by bringing in 'back-engineered' 4D tech, and so with this scenario you still take a 'leap of faith' into 'alien' territory!
I was thinking about all of this last night, and then we were talking about it again in the kitchen this morning. I still think many things don't add up.
For example, many of the drones are supposedly silent. Okay, there are propellers that are whisper quiet. But then think of all the propeller-driven aircraft, including helicopters. How many are silent? Like, none, right? Well, maybe that's because when you make a silent propeller, you don't get something for nothing. So, it
can be silent, but loses lift. Or it can be silent and create the same lift, but it requires 2x more power. There must be a tradeoff, or else most propeller-driven aircraft would be much quieter. We know for modern passenger jet engine design, noise level is a key design factor - because noise pollution.
Or, as Niall remarked during the NewsReal show yesterday: So some drones can go 400kph, but for how long? Plus, the vids of super-fast drones I've seen all sound like little lawnmowers.
Even if "they" have made a silent drone, apparently at least some of them are not just silent but also really really fast... which means they're not powered by any battery or engine I know about.
And why on Earth does a swarm of drones that are supposedly to detect dirty bombs need to be utterly silent? Plus, Western intelligence doesn't seem to need drones to detect anything. Apparently, they are the ones directing the entire Ukraine conflict, and the Russians generally mention
satellite intelligence.
Or: Why make the drones super-silent, but then leave their bright lights flashing like crazy? And then some have no heat signature, at all?!
As for the deleted tweets from that guy who talked about the drone swarm with "200GHz horn antennas forming a mesh network"... that one just stinks. First, why 200GHz transmitters that require line-of-sight? No frequency is "jam-proof" just because of the frequency itself. The idea is that you transmit a similar frequency at a higher power level, thereby drowning out the real signals. And who in their right mind would mount "horn antennas" on an
aircraft that would generally need to be aerodynamic? To me, it just doesn't add up - unless you're talking about a level of combined tech advances that neither America nor anyone else has ever seen before.
Which means that as Niall said, a "leap of faith" is still required. And this from the same MIC that can't beat Russia in Ukraine to save their lives! This is the same complex that responds to Russia's very real (and now demonstrated) wonder-weapons with, "Bro, don't worry... we're sending our top Abrams tanks and ATACMS missiles..." And then Russia laughs and blows them up.
It seems the West's ace up the sleeve is their intelligence gathering coupled with "black ops" and information warfare. They can overthrow whatever government they want, sow chaos in most countries, and they don't need standard high-tech weapons to do it. So why a drone fleet now? Well, I suppose there probably IS a series of companies madly developing drones becuz they've seen what Russia and China are doing, and they're playing catch-up. That wouldn't be surprising to me, and neither would testing them - in as stupid a way as possible.
But I suspect they aren't "super high-tech", and that at least some of the recent sightings
are actual UFOs. Then you have real drone tests, and then you have a
giant load of hysteria that confuses everything and makes it nearly impossible to figure out what's really going on.
So, who knows... I wanna ask the C's!!
