GPS jamming
You are going to skin paint a vinyl balloon filled with helium? So I turn
it on for ten minutes and then off for ten. By that time it has drifted a few miles. Try spotting a balloon that only has to lift about five pounds at a quarter mile, much less a couple of miles. Sorry, no "probably" allowed. Neither helium nor vinyl absorb enough power to be popped by anything other than a direct hit. Jim -- "If you think you can, or think you can't, you're right." --Henry Ford Any given EW aircraft in the USAF fleet to narrow localize and an AWACs that'll get a skin paint on the balloon. They could probably pump enough energy through the radar to pop the balloon. |
