Drones "Spying" on New Jersey.

There's enough politics all over. I don't think we need it here.

Me neither. That is why I did not bring up the one elephant in the room. If the FAA bought Robin Radar equipment to test on Cape May from a company headquartered in the Netherlands, who paid the tariffs and how much were they? But, no one has brought it up yet so maybe the coast is clear.

This cool AI tool can be used for forensic digital reconstruction of all aircraft using ADSB at particular location on specific date and time. The reconstruction can be layered to include all celestial and meteorological data and how it would have all looked to ground observer. This can be used to analyze whether someone may have confused an airplane miles away for a drone close-up. In Zulu time of course whatever that is.

Bizarre statement. Why the secrecy and doublespeak. "Its not up to..."
What, its not up to you to tell? Is that what he was going to say? Who else on earth would it be up to up?
Why not just say (if its the truth):
like we said back in January, the FBI and DHS investigated all 5,000 reports submitted by the public and confirmed that 95% were cases of mistaken identity. They looked at charts, big beautiful charts, that showed people, and these were good people on both sides, who simply mistook regular airplanes miles away for drones close up. But everything was legally authorized by the FAA including some secret research that really is nothing at all and frankly none of your business anyway.

Tulsi Gabbard says that she'd personally like to know...
Wouldn't you think, in her capacity as Director of National Intelligence, that she'd like to know officially?

I wanted to ask you about drones you know we had the issue in New Jersey before the election where there are all these people thought UFO's or an attack of the killer drones and I believe you're doing something about
Yeah
what are you doing?
I well I know I can't tell you what who it was and what it was but yeah I can't really tell you I'd love to tell you actually but it's not up it's not a big deal but
Its not something frightening
no but I I just you know so obviously it's something that I know about and it's not a problem at all
it was legal?
ohh yeah it was legal
Yeah
what are you doing?

AI Overview
The recent drone activity over New Jersey, which sparked significant public and official concern, is reportedly linked to a DARPA research project focused on advanced drone technologies. This project, known as REMA (Rapid Experimentation of Mission Autonomy), aims to develop autonomous drone capabilities, including those beyond visual line of sight. While the drones were initially met with mystery and speculation, including claims of foreign interference, investigations have revealed that they are likely part of this authorized testing program.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:

While the drones were initially met with mystery and speculation, including claims of foreign interference, investigations have revealed that they are likely part of this authorized testing program.
Here's a more detailed breakdown:
- DARPA's REMA program:
This program focuses on developing autonomous drone capabilities and has been conducting tests in the New Jersey area.
- Testing and research:
The drones are involved in testing various aspects of drone technology, including autonomous navigation, data collection, and potential countermeasures to interference.
- Public concern and misinformation:
The initial lack of transparency led to public concern and speculation, including claims of foreign involvement or malicious activity.
- Government response and clarification:
The White House and other officials have stated that the drones are part of authorized research and testing activities, and do not pose a threat.
- Importance of transparency:
The situation highlights the need for transparency and communication from government agencies when conducting sensitive research programs, especially when they involve public airspace.
- Ongoing investigations:
While the initial mystery has been largely addressed, investigations into the drones and their specific capabilities are ongoing.

“REMA is the demonstrator for rapid ideation and tech development,” Dr. Lael Rudd, REMA program manager, said. “The five performers under contract are working as a conglomerate without firewalls to create common solutions to achieve the program goals.” Contracts for the drone-autonomy adapter interface technical area were awarded to Anduril and RTX, while contracts for the mission-specific autonomy software technical area went to Leidos, Northrop Grumman and SoarTech.
DARPA emphasized that small aerial vehicles like those used here are likely to play increasingly important military roles on the battlefield. One could see some semblance of this in the ongoing Russian invasion of Ukraine, where both sides have made use of drone technology. REMA, however, hopes to up the defensive capabilities of drones by rendering electromagnetic countermeasures against them ineffective.
Traditionally, interrupting the link between operator and drone – as through electromagnetic strikes – was a good way to either cause mission aborts or crashes. An autonomy adapter would help solve some of that problem.

Either way, it was not mass delusion or mass hysteria. The government tried to convince the public it was.

It was pre-election hype and fearmongering. Nothing more, nothing less.

The persons most directly responsible for the DJI ban work for the Department of Defense. They created a list and put DJI on it. The same DOD behind the New Jersey Drone Experiment.
i see them every night they come from there launch spot 2 miles away at some poultry houses secluded on private property to many to count now all moving at a snails pace ...3 yrs i have been watching them cross our farm. i cant even fly my drone at sunset or after they jam my signal sending it orff adrift with no contact from controller or gps just last night i lost a mavic pro any one with some good night camera equipment i can blow you away come show america whats really going on i will donate the time and guarantee all the proof you need launch areas landing areas etc i wish someone could put enough heat on these snooping pests to rid them of my night skys smh
