‘Wouldn’t Call That A Balloon’: Audio Released From F-16 Fighter Jets That Eliminated Object Over Lake Huron
In a new stunning development of the mysterious flying objects that seem to have been flying around the U.S., the audio from the very F-16 fighter jets involved has been released.
The audio from this instance shows just how bewildered the aircraft pilots were at the discovery of this object were, only furthering the mystery.
Ultimately, the flying object was shot down on Sunday after two other mysterious objects were shot down over Canada on Saturday as well as another on Friday which was shot down off the coast of Alaska.
The Drive which first reported the audio recording of the Wisconsin Air National Guard highlights just how confused the pilots themselves were when they identified the flying object itself.
“I wouldn’t really call it a balloon … I don’t know what … I can see it outside with my eyes,” one pilot says after locking eyes with the unidentifiable object.
Listen to the audio recording of the pilots below:
“Looks like something … there’s some kind of object that’s distended in the air. It’s hard to tell, it’s pretty small,” the pilot went on to say.
In the audio another pilot chimes in claiming that it could not tell if the flying object was “metallic or what.”
“I can see, like, lines coming down below, but I can’t see anything below it,” the pilot says before identifying the object as “definitely smaller than a car.”
“The size of it, that would be challenging … it’s so slow and so small, I just can’t see it because it’s so close,” one pilot said analyzing the object.
“I’m going to call it a balloon … You can definitely see strings hanging down below but I don’t see anything more. … It’s pretty small, I don’t know, about the size of, like a four-wheeler or something,” another pilot added.
Ultimately, it took two Sidewinder AIM-9X missiles to take out the target due to the first missile missing.
A defense official told Fox News that, “The first Sidewinder heat-seeking missile missed the target.”
After taking the target down, it has yet to be reported that the any debris from the flying object have been discovered only furthering the mystery behind the flying objects.
