A large blimp developed by the Chinese military has been spotted for the first time at a remote base in the desert of northwestern China, exclusive new satellite imagery obtained by CNN shows. #CNN #News
Never-before-seen images of Chinese military blimp explained by reporter
yeah, I bet it is a prototype. something bigger coming
This blimp approach would be great for low cost internet access for wide areas of sparsely populated regions!
isn’t there a similar suggestion with solar powered glider drones with wifi
After WWII the US used surplus bombers as TV broadcasters in this way! (I suppose only until they could get a broadcasting tower built.)
WOW VERY DANGEROUS SIR! 😠 😠BUT THIS WHY IM SO LUCKY LIVE IN SUPER INDIA THE CLEANEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD 🇮🇳🤗 , WE NEVER SCAM! WE GIVE RESPECT TO ALL WOMEN THEY CAN WALK SAFELY ALONE AT NIGHT AND WE HAVE CLEAN FOOD AND TOILET EVERYWHERE 🇮🇳🤗🚽, I KNOW MANY POOR PEOPLE JEALOUS WITH SUPER RICH INDIA 🤗🇮🇳🤗🇮🇳🤗🇮🇳🤗🇮🇳🤗🇮🇳
Unless you go underground or underwater, nothing is too remote to be seen any more.
blimp would be ideal for spreading bio weapons over a country. why china used ballons to learn air currents “jet streams” to try and be rdy to spread a bio weapon
how do you expect something that big and slow moving to penetrate airspace defended by stealth fighters?
no, they didn’t need balloons to find jet streams, that is all public information. And jet streams move constantly; finding out where they are today doesn’t tell you where they’ll be next week.
Lol… fear mongering.
As a result of this report, Goodyear has now mounted nuclear ICBM’s on all their blimps in the event of a dogfight. 😎
can you imagine… it’s balloons that will detect stealth plaines and not radar? lol it cant be that easy can’t it? hope not
@WHO RULES THE AIR? EXACTLY learn how to spell plane
Met Life has installed high powered lasors in Snoopy’s eyes to wing-man the Good-Year ship!
@DLS typical THAT KIND OF gen-z’er response. typical.
These images were released in March. Sorry, guys, you’re not the first.
Guess what you need to be able to efficiently navigate one of those? mapped wind dynamics.
Once the Fighter, White Mage, Black Mage, and Thief get back with the LodeStone ….
I didn’t think the Fire Nation was real, but here we are.
So it is less than half as long as Goodyear’s latest dirigible, the GZ-20.
Using a spy satellite to spy on a spy blimp sounds like cheating, no?
Anyway…

Blimps. So cutting edge. That we have had air dirigible air ships for 150 years.
Cutting edge for spying yes. Satellites can only intercept communication for brief periods of time as it orbits the earth. Blimps can hover and intercept for a longer period of time.
@rbb808 They can also be shot down extremely easily.
@Juan C it depends. Fall out is a concern and the attitude makes it weirder than you’d think.
These blimps are terrifying. They can fly much slower than any fighter jet.
Black Lotus has trained us well.
Why is it when they find something they always say..WELL I BELIEVE ITS THIS OR I BELIEVE ITS THAT..
National Defence: We need more funding from taxpayers
But will our combined resources be able to defend from such a threat? 😮
Oh they are easy gas lighters.

What terrifying tech will these demons think of next? Biplanes? 😱
If they figure out they can drop stuff on people below, we’re screwed!
Obvious yet subtle
It’s not about how fast they fly.Were not able to pick it up with our satellites thermal imaging when they take off.And it’s much harder to see with radar.
