This reminds me when F22s blasted Chinese balloons out of the sky.

  Reminds me of when we sent balloons into Russian Airspace to see how many we could get back on the other end, in the 1950s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Genetrix https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Genetrix

    I'm a bit disappointed the balloons weren't nuclear powered, considering the era.
