Just keeps on getting more interesting doesn't it? Another shoot down but at least this time it didn't make it quite as far as the last one.

In all of the news reports I heard, not one mentioned whether the object was borne by a balloon, or if it was a drone, etc.  Sending up an F-22 and using a missile to take it down seems a little much.

Sounds a lot like a muscle flexing stunt for public approval to me.

How else could it have been done?
Sounds like muscle flexing? Absolutely.
