Las Vegas Cybertruck Bomber Claimed NJ Drones Are Ultra-Advanced Chinese Military Tech With âGravitic Propulsion Systemsâ
top marks for the video
Must have been just peachy for the locals.
Love the way the honcho just waved a hand at the localsâ concerns.
âAircraft from RAF Lakenheath were conducting routine night flying training sorties in and around the airspace over Wales,â he said.
Uh huh, the exercise was so routine and common that everyone who lives nearby was freaking TF out.
What a dickhead.
So, is the Turnip setting his sights on Wales next?
Er ⊠that actually makes it a little stranger. RAF Lakenheath is North East of London in Suffolk, roughly 300 km from Wales. Thatâs not a long range for a jet, but not exactly locals. (So why were they flying over Wales instead of out over the North Sea? 
)
Doing air-to-ground training, or flying against radar emitters, or doing training with JTACs, or doing training in areas where the terrain is a suitable mimic of some overseas threat area.
There are absolutely scenarios that make sense, but youâd still think someone would have told the locals! Iâm assuming there isnât an RAF base near the area in question, else they likely wouldnât have paid too much attention except to watch the show. I was stationed at the next RAF base over from Lakenheath (Mildenhall) and it wasnât unusual to see fighter jets doing training.
Or, my favorite, the SR-71 taking off from our base. Despite those never being announced, every time it went up there would be locals already setup with cameras and binoculars in the observation area on the public road closest to the flight line. They knew what 3 fuel tankers going up about 10 minutes apart signaled.
Pretty close to where the aircraft were seen.
That plus this from the article: âThe UK Ministry of Defence has a number of tactical training areas in Wales, including Low Flying Area 7â
And it starts to make a lot more sense. Fighter jet training can be noisy, I get that, but the only thing I can see that would be really unusual is that this was happening at night which may not be as familiar to the locals. Add in a nice opportunity for sensationalist news and you get a variation of the New Jersey âdrone invasions.â
The police do more of their helicopter training at night, since fewer people make complains at night.
Since the complaint process requires identifying the owners of the gorram helicopters which is impossible in the day and more impossible at night.
The Government posts a timetable of when the area is in use
I cannot see one planned for USAF recently.
But the RAF fly really low in the area (the video is dated admittedly).
Plenty of people have ideas, they just donât agree.
[obvious dick joke]
Has anyone asked Boeing yet?
He thinks itâs probably something or other the US military is working on.
Do NASA astronauts not watch 60âs British TV?
Irresistable. So smooth and shiny!
