Gen. Pat Ryder said: \u201cThe balloon is currently traveling at an altitude well above commercial air traffic and does not present a military or physical threat to people on the ground.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>He said: \u201cOnce the balloon was detected, the U.S. government acted immediately to protect against the collection of sensitive information.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad  ad--inline_1\">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\">\n\t\t<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>First reported was the existence of the balloon by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nbcnews.com\/politics\/national-security\/suspected-chinese-spy-balloon-found-northern-us-military-installations-rcna68879\">NBC News.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Secretary of Defense Lloyd Austin convened a meeting of military brass \u2014 including the head of U.S. Northern Command and North American Aerospace Defense Command \u2014 on Wednesday to get their assessment, according to a senior Defense official.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn this instance, President Biden was briefed and asked for military options. Secretary Austin convened senior DOD leadership yesterday even as he was on the road in the Philippines. There was a strong recommendation by the Chairman of Joint Chiefs Gen. [Mark] Milley and the commander of Northcom Gen. [Glen] VanHerck not to take kinetic action due to the risk to the safety and security of people on the ground from the possible debris field,\u201d According to the official, reporters were informed.<\/p>\n<p>The balloon&#8217;s dimensions were not revealed by the official.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not going to go into the exact dimensions [of it]. We did assess that it was large enough to cause damage from the debris field if we downed it over an area. We had been looking at whether there was an option yesterday over some sparsely populated areas in Montana, but we just couldn\u2019t buy down the risk enough to feel comfortable recommending shooting it down,\u201d They agreed.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad  ad--inline_1\">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\">\n\t\t<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Multiple U.S. military personnel have been monitoring the platform and will continue to monitor it. According to an official, F-22 fighter jets were also mobilized in the past as the situation changed.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe intent of this balloon is for surveillance, and so the current flight path does carry it over a number of sensitive sites,\u201d The official stated.<\/p>\n<p>China has other intelligence collection assets like satellites that can also spy on the U.S.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cCurrently we assess that this balloon has limited added value from an intelligence collection perspective. But we are taking steps nevertheless to protect against foreign intelligence collection of sensitive information. We\u2019re also tracking what abilities they could have in gaining insight and continue to monitor the balloon as it is over the continental United States,\u201d The official stated.<\/p>\n<p>U.S. government officials have been in touch with Chinese officials regarding the incident.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad  ad--inline_1\">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\">\n\t\t<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>\u201cWe have made clear we will do whatever is necessary to protect our people and our homeland. So if the risk profile that I described earlier, if that changes, we will have options to deal with this balloon,\u201d The senior Defense official stated this.<\/p>\n<p>DefenseScoop asked the official whether there was a policy to engage these types of systems.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAs it relates to do we have a policy \u2014 the answer is yes, we do. And most importantly, we also have sufficient authority given to us to take action under Title 10 against unmanned aerial systems, of which this balloon would be a part. So, we think we have all the authorities we need to do anything that we need to do to protect the American people, and we\u2019ll continue to do that,\u201d The official stated.<\/p>\n<p>It is not the first time a Chinese balloon of such type has flown above the United States. It has happened. \u201ca handful of other times over the past few years,\u201d According to the official, this includes before the Biden administration assumed office.<\/p>\n<p>However, \u201cit is appearing to hang out for a longer period of time this time around, more persistent than in previous instances. That would be one distinguishing factor,\u201d The official stated.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad  ad--inline_1\">\n<div class=\"ad__inner\">\n\t\t<span class=\"screen-reader-text\">Advertisement<\/span><\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>Officials have confirmed that 163 reports of anomalous phenomena were classified as balloon-like entities after a review of U.S. military sightings.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not going to go into the exact nature of the technology, [but] I don\u2019t think that the payload on this [Chinese balloon] is \u2014 I wouldn\u2019t characterize it as revolutionary,\u201d DefenseScoop was informed by a senior Defense official. \u201cI think the thing that is different is the altitude, and of course, the willingness to put it over the continental United States for an extended period of time. I think that\u2019s the biggest difference here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson from China Foreign Ministry stated Friday that the balloon belonged to China. However, she claimed that it was being used elsewhere. \u201cresearch\u201d  \u201cmeteorological purposes.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe airship is from China. It is a civilian airship used for research, mainly meteorological, purposes. Affected by the Westerlies and with limited self-steering capability, the airship deviated far from its planned course.
