  1. JST What they did? It was a balloon that was blown off course due to strong winds and it had limited manoeuvrability. What did they do again?

  7.  @bowl3864  "are you saying Taiwan is Chinese territory?" I didnt mention Taiwan at all? But yes, according to Taiwans constitution, Taiwan is indeed Chinese territory.

  9.  @ImGonnaOilYouUp  Also, why didnt the US warn China about an encroaching "aircraft" threat? Like what every other military operation would do, warn the encroaching target about a possible confrontation. Were they not able to detect before reaching the Mainland? Incompetence?

  10. ​ @ImGonnaOilYouUp  Deflection? Not at all. In order to accuse one of anything, you need evidence, otherwise its all hearsay. So are you speaking nonsense here or you actually have evidence to your claims? And what pure misinformation? When any unauthorised aircraft or ship is about to enter into another countrys territory theres always a warning that theyre about to enter into their territory and XYZ will happen. If theyre competent enough to detect it that is. Detected by Canada? It flew past ALASKA before anything. Last time I checked Alaska is part of the US no? Why dont you know this? Incompetence? Also, heres something from your NORAD commander on the recent events: '“As NORAD commander, it’s my responsibility to detect threats to North America,” Air Force Gen. Glen D. VanHerck, the head of North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD) and U.S. Northern Command (NORTHCOM), told reporters. “I will tell you that we did not detect those threats. And that’s a domain awareness gap that we have to figure out.” Pentagon officials said Feb. 4 surveillance balloons had entered U.S. airspace at least four times in recent years, during both President Joe Biden’s and President Donald Trump’s administrations. The intelligence community eventually made “us aware of those balloons that were previously approaching North America or transited North America,” according to VanHerck, but NORAD did not know about those cases in real-time, showing a deficiency in protecting American skies.' So, incompetence yeh?

  11.  @Oridux  If its within orbit, its within range. Also there is no formal definition to whats considered international territory in airspace.

  12.  @maiii02  I didnt say "Chinese waters". You used the word "territory" and now you edited it to "waters".... There are PLENTY of US aircrafts in Chinese territory. So based on your logic, they belong to China now?

  13.  @Lupercal1901  12nm is territorial waters, not 200nm. 200nm is the Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ)

  14.  @maiii02  Recover quickly it and its theirs, if they dont then its not? Who says? You say? You the law or something? There are plenty of US aircrafts flying and landing into China every single day. How do you think people from the US come to China and vice versa? And what do you mean I didnt watch the "proof"? On what basis are you making such baseless assumptions?
