Never heard of chaf doing that, or being discussed.

I read it in another article about it. Something about the AF saying it was chaf but then the local Airbase saying they had nothing to do with it.

Yes. That's what this article says. Chaf is dispended from many aircraft daily and I've never heard of it interfering with Doppler. Just weird.

Chaff from military plane likely caused mysterious blip in weather radar: Reports


quote:

The NWS later determined that "the leading theory" for the cause of the blip was chaff from an aircraft, which is a stream or cloud of radar-jamming material such as thin aluminum that is often used as a countermeasure during combat.
quote:

Wayne Hart, meteorologist for ABC Evansville, Indiana, affiliate WEHT, tweeted that the chaff came from a military C-130 northwest of Evansville, citing an unnamed pilot who was given the information from the Evansville air traffic control.
quote:

The two military bases nearest to where the blip occurred (Fort Campbell and Scott AFB) denied that the C-130 came from their premises.

I think somebody did that in WW2. Maybe it was more recent like the Gulf War or Vietnam but I remember some military using it to disrupt radar on a large scale before.

Official explanation is chaff. I'm skeptical. The cloud hung stationary for 10.5 hours. That's a long time for a cloud not to dissipate or just fall to the Earth.

Coincidentally, the "UFO" tech we have was initially developed to be used as chaff in enemy airspace.

Well I don't think it was a hologram. If anything it would have just been a test to see how long the cloud will hang there.

In order to make it appear as something else, say a UFO, you would need some sort of projector or lazers or something. They can make pretty convincing holograms like this. Like, make it look like a house is floating in the sky. Or whatever.

All jmo of course. This is what I've heard from someone I believe to be in a position to know.

I think we all know what it was, you're all just too afraid to admit it.



Its a line to DC to drop off supplies for the sleeper agents and KGB ANTIFA rebels.
