For all those monitoring milair comms, maybe you want to get this new radio...
COBRA-47 will need tanker soon or call it a night. Maybe they hit tanker already on way back down South but doesn't look like it altitude ways on ADSB. Seems to be covering just NW of Nashville.Prob just watching it closely in case it suddenly drops or changes course.

That Pentagon spokesman Brig Gen P Ryder was a media bust.. What a pretentious jerk.Mark
Chinese just wanted to get live feed on The Grand Ole Opry Sat night program
I bet no more press conferences from him again... This is the best the Pentagon has?
"Don't ask us just look up in the sky!" That was sorry A explanation.
COBRA-47 has broken off a bit headed Southeast.. Maybe Balloon picking up speed.Chatanooga next?
One Def analyst says if balloon can hit Coos Bay Sub pens in Georgia they will have a trifecta.

Chinese are playing US Mil Site Bingo.
Been tracking B270E02 since last night when I saw it doing my normal sweeps. Zooming in to almost the closest view, it has a little motion but not much at all (Seen in one pic)
With hearing about the Russian sub off the East coast a bit, and then about these balloons that are in the air which are allegedly Chinese, I did see some NOAA pathing that shows it will arc down through Missouri and end up over in the DC area.
Interesting enough, there's an unusual R135 scan going on right now, COBRA47, near the Missouri/Tennessee borders. I see R135s frequently over the US and they have their usual patterns, but this is not usual (seen in the other pic)
Interesting times..

An edited version of yesterday's press briefing at the Pentagon on the balloon, that @Mark describes so well.
Another off topic but interesting post from while you were sleeping...

Anyone else noticed the recent up kick of fighters using ADS-B?
As I've previously mentioned AV8 Harriers from MCAS Cherry Point started using them several weeks ago on a near daily basis. Currently seeing roughly 4 what I suspect are F-18's off the coast of Savannah with ADS-B Transponders. At first I thought they were the contract aggressors however they originated from MCAS Beaufort. With that being said MCAS Beaufort host foreign pilots on a regular basis for F35 training however I believe they still fly US aircraft.
I have a feeling we'll slowly start to see more non conventional military aircraft start using transponders on a more regular basis in certain areas.
