U.S. Air Force Bases in England Again Buzzed by Drones

Breitbart London 26 Nov 2024

LONDON (AP) – The U.S. Air Force says a number of small drones have been detected near three bases in eastern England that are used by American forces.

Tuesday’s ongoing incident comes just days after drones were spotted near RAF Lakenheath, RAF Mildenhall and RAF Feltwell. They were actively monitored after they were seen in the vicinity of and over the three bases, U.S. Air Forces Europe said in a statement on Sunday.

The Air Force hasn´t identified who is believed to be behind the incursions. Unspecified mitigation measures are underway.

Lakenheath is home to the 48th Fighter Wing, which the U.S. Air Force describes as the foundation of its combat capability in Europe. Mildenhall hosts the 100th Air Refueling Wing, and Feltwell is a hub for housing, schools and other services.

Lakenheath, Mildenhall and Feltwell, located close to one another in the counties of Suffolk and Norfolk, are Royal Air Force bases used primarily by the U.S. Air Force.

I have a hard time believing there are no capture drones capable of pursuing these, firing nets, or otherwise disabling them so they can possibly be investigated as to origin and purpose. (or maybe just following them 'home').

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Maybe forcing the military to play it's hand and reveal their own drones abilities is exactly what these mystery drone operators want.

Skeet shooting with a howitzer?  Load some buck shot, and fire.

They weren't balloons, so it's not the Chi-coms.

Maybe just issue shotguns and appropriate loads, maybe a contest with prizes.
