Military Radar Recalibration and F-22 Engagement Limitations
Military officials recalibrated radar systems to detect slow-moving objects, leading to the discovery of multiple UAPs after the initial Chinese spy balloon incident. General Van Herck of NORAD confirmed that the F-22 Raptor's guns are ineffective above 50,000 feet, necessitating the use of infrared-tracking AIM-9X missiles. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin addressed whether these objects posed a long-term intelligence failure or simply a change in data analysis.
