air force f-16 fighter jet shut down an object over lake huron. 's critical norad says this is the same object briefly detected on radar over the skies of montana, they tracked it over lake michigan, they've closed down airspace briefly and over lake huron. congressman jack, a three star general autopilot himself spoke to fox earlier and offered details of this force object shot down over north america in eight days. >> f-16 using a missile that shot down a structure over lake huron. the altitude about 20000 feet and at that time i asked the question, what's the plan for recovering the debris? they said they are working on it and they would get back. >> of course missiles of sidewinder used for close range should guns. the mission governor says national security and safety is top priority and in contact with the federal government and partners tracking an object near our airspace and glad to report it swiftly, safely and securely taken down. mission national guard stands ready and the fourth object to be destroyed in fighter jets over north america

this latest taking place moments ago over lake huron over at lake huron jack bergman alluded retired general and former naval aviator himself knows all about this and a two week quote over the great lakes region today. the u.s. military has decommissioned another object over lake huron i appreciate the decisive action american people deserve more answers than we have. november before this latest object was shot down the fourth object shot down over north america in the past eight days. another potential spotting took place over the skies of montana. faa close the launch alert norad later called anomaly. that did not stop senator tester from happening the following on cbs earlier. ask my guess is it will get shot down for the military will make an assessment as to potential collateral damage just like they did with the chinese spy plane. parks after the object wasn't blown out of the sky over canada yesterday the faa close airspace in montana after potentially seeing objects on radar. give the all clear a short time later and could give a false alarm she mentioned earlier called it a r

another object just shot down over lake huron.ast week alone, since the military took out that china spy balloon, the military shot down three other objects. two over alaska and canada over the past two days, but don't ask president biden about any of this and this was last night. >> mr. president, do you know the objects, were you able to recover it yet? was it a balloon, mr. president? >> so, as the president does not answer questions from reporters, his fellow democrats tried to spin the story claiming china should be embarrassed. >> i think the chinese were humiliated. i think the chinese were caught lying and i think it's a real, it's a real step back for them. alicia: okay. so i guess the big question is, who is really humiliated in this moment and before i go to you, joe. i want you to take a listen to senator ron johnson, calling the biden administration the b-team on the field when it comes to dealing with china. >> i've been warning for years about the risk of high altitude nuclear blast that could create an electromagne

the balloon that was downed over lake huron.he first chinese fighter balloon -- spy balloon that went down over the coast, that one hit. the second over alaska hit in the third one in the yukon hit. the fourth one, first shot missed in the second shot hit. the most important thing for the american military is to protect the market people. we evaluate the risk. are they an intelligence threat, we determine what the debris field is likely to be with one of these platforms landed on the earth's surface or the water. we go to great lengths to make sure that the airspace is clear and the backdrop is clear at max effective range of the missile and at this case, it loaded harmlessly on lake huron. make sure that it is clear of any commercial traffic. we are deliberate in our planning. it does that along with the pirates -- pilots insults. we are dust themselves. we are very careful. we make sure we minimize collateral damage and preserve the safety of the people. >> -- the others -- other three objects as the first one? gen. milley: i

michigan over lake huron. third high altitude something taken down over north america in the past through days and the fourth object since the start of the month. michigan congressman john james is also a former apache helicopter pilot is he down at ground level right now. he joins us live from michigan. congressman, good morning to you. >> good morning. >> steve: so this latest shootdown not far from where you are with lake huron. on saturday, canada described the object as a cylinder and then apparently the thing they shot down yesterday was being described to the "the washington post" as an octagon. you're in congress. you guys get briefing. what are they telling you about this stuff? >> you know. >> a bunch of radio silent at that point dance. we shouldn't be surprised. just two years ago we have russia invading ukraine and you have balloons flying over and people who are not having tin foil hats on are talking about ufos in the course of standard media. things are out-of-control. and we need to get a hand

this case, the missile landed in lake huron.said we would track it down to make sure the airspace was clear of any commercial or recreational traffic. >> ashley: lucas, what else do you know that you could tell us? >> it is important to tell our viewers that that missile that went down lake huron after missing the object is not armed. there is not harm on the midsole. is there an armed missile at the bottom of lake huron right now question worth answer is no. in fact, fighter pilots told me none of the missiles were using to shoot down these objects including chinese spy craft shot down with armed missiles. actually there were missiles that did not have warheads on them and kind of acting like a lower spear, high-tech spear to pop these balloons to destroy these objects. >> todd: so armageddon and less space needle one prick trying to pop this thing. in a jokey context, that is what it is because obviously we don't want a bomb in the middle of the lake. lucas, thank you very much for the clarification. california senator dianne

so we're talking about the balloon that was down over lake huron.irst balloon, the chinese spy balloon that went down over the atlantic and the south carolina coast, that was, that shot hit. second one over alaska on the north coast of alaska, that one hit. the third one that landed in the yukon, a that one hit. -- that one hit. on the fourtht one, first shot many missed, second shot hit. so the most important thing for the american military so the protect the american people. so we evaluate the risk, we evaluate the risk of the balloons themselves, are they an intelligence threat, a threat to aviation, all those hinges we go through very carefully. we determine what the debris field is t likely to be with one of these platforms landing on the earth's surface or in the p water, so we go to great lengths to the makein sure that the air space and the backdrop are clear to the maxfective range of the missile. and in this casesi the missile landed harmless wily in the water of lake huron. we tracked it all the way down. and we made sure that the air spa

the wreckage remains at the bottom of lake huron. the two other objects shot down over the last five days in alaska and canada have also yet to be retrieved. but today, the white house saying the intellinc community's leading explanation is that the objects "could just be balloons tied to some commercial or behind purpose." >> they are considering or looking this at this to be potentially benign. but of course, we want to make sure that we get the objects so we can get a sense of what -- what the objects were for certain. >> reporter: the kind of explanation that did not sit well with some on capitol hill after a closed door briefing. >> on the one hand, the administration is saying we don't yet know what these last three objects are, but on the other hand, it wasn't a threat. both of those things can't be true. >> the american people need and deserve to know more. >> reporter: a senior u.s. official tells us there is now a working group, a so-called tiger team, that is trying to figure out the right way to recalibrate the systems to

on friday over alaska, saturday up in canada, and sunday over lake huron. officials are not really ready to classify or describe what these objects were. the are calling them aerial objects. the reasons they were shot down is because they were in civilian airspace around 20,000 to 40,000 feet. b, they decided they were unsure of the surveillance capabilities these objects might have. president biden went ahead and made the decision to shoot them down. we still don't know where they came from, what their purpose was. there is much to be learned in the days ahead as teams work to recover the debris. host: the first was described as a chinese spy balloon. these last three objects a little different. are we certain they are from china or is that the expectation? guest: we are unsure where they came from. officials have been careful not to assign china responsibility for these but it is possible that may end up being the case. john kirby, they white house spokesperson was talking about how the reality is there is nothing nefarious about these objects, acknowledg

senior pentagon official says yet another ufo has been shot down by the us military this time over lake huron in michigan. the pentagon says it is likely that not yet confirmed that the latest object is the same one they shut down yesterday picking up on radar over montana. the michigan congressman said it had the octagonal structure flying at 15000 feet.

the latest over lake huron between michigan and canada at the direction of president biden. we hhave brie jackson in d.c. with what we know and what we don't. brie >> reporter: good morning, brian. a lot of questions surrounding the flying objects the pentagon is declining to describe these as balloons this is the fourth takedown as we have seen recently. lawmakers are left in the dark about the situation. the u.s. military shooting down a fourth unidentified high altitude object on sunday. this time over lake huron. >> what has gone on the last two weeks or ten days has been nothing short of craziness the military needs to have a plan to not only determine what is out there, but determine the dangers. >> reporter: president biden ordering the takedown after the military concerns about the object's path and altitude it was a safety hazard and threat this marks the third object blasted out of the sky in three days and commenes a week after chinese balloon was shot out of the sky. >> they seem trigger happy this seems permissible over the chinese spy balloon over the sensitive

we know lake huron is on the border pretty much of canada.his object originate in canadian airspace before coming over over michigan airspace? that we just do not know yet as well. look, as we get into this, it's very clear the u.s. military and intelligence are beefing up their operations here. they spotted multiple objects in the last couple days. something lawmakers are asking is, are there more objects now? did we just not know how to look at for them before? that is one of the main questions senator jon tester, the leader of the defense appropriations subcommittee is looking to answer. senator schumer said he asked jay sullivan overnight as well. as lawmakers get back into town this morning on this side we are sure this week will be all focused on china as well. again, this object, the last three -- the last to at least, the one in canada included, it's not clear if that came from china or elsewhere. it's something our military is looking into. a really important factor with this objects shot down over lake huron's authorities believe th

case there was an -- was a reaction from the foreign government -- admiral kirby: it was shot over lake huron and landed in what we believe to be the canadian side of the lake. we were in constant mutation with arcadian counterparts and they are, rightly, because of where we think it splashed down, in consort with the u.s. coast guard, they are involved in trying to locate the debris right now. but there was good communication with our canadian allies. reporter: our foreign governments taken a special interest or reacting? admiral kirby: no. reporter: two questions. you mentioned early on that the china balloon may have been giving limited additive capabilities. i take it you mean onto their satellite surveillance. can you specialize what it is getting from a balloon they are not getting from orbiting satellites? admiral kirby: with the caveat that we have not fully recovered everything, but we have covered some things and we are analyzing that. but with that caveat, we don't know exactly what this balloon was surveilling or its capabilities. just in general -- it's an important caveat to rem

general milley says the first missile landed harmlessly in the waters of lake huron. this does raise the question if the u.s. is more aggressive about shooting down unidentified objects, does the inaccuracy of the first missile concern you? >> yeah, no, absolutely. we have to be careful. going back to the very first balloon and the biden administration's decision to wait to shoot it down, the more we learn the more we know that was the absolute right decision. shoot first and ask questions later is never a particularly good approach. take time to understand it and there is risks. if you fire a missile at something over the continental united states or canada, there is risk. best to be cautious and secondarily as we've heard, because they waited to shoot down the balloon we know is from china in a place where they wanted it to, we were able to recover it because we shot it down in a recoverable spot. we're learning a lot about that and certainly there is risk. people say just shoot it down. no, let's be cautious and understand and balance these risks, which i think the

in my state in michigan and lake huron, lake huron is basically an inland sea, incredibly deep.it has gone down to the bottom it won't be an easy task to get down there and look at what made up this object that was neutralized. >> we just heard the description of the conditions there of how cold the water is where some of this debris is. but to the question of whether these were benign if they have not been collected and potentially will never be connected how can there be a leading theory on what these were if you don't know what the pay load on the first and second objects, these balloons were? >> yeah. and that is why you really have to recover the debris to know if there was a pay load. you know, also some question as to whether there was a pay load on the object shot down over lake huron. that is going to be some visual evidence. i was certainly frustrated not to get more information as to what did the pilots see, what was their description, videos taken. why don't we have an opportunity to see some of those to judge for ourselves and a better sense of what exactly we are d

the latest object was shot down over lake huron, between the us and canada.—long chinese balloon spying saga that has intensified the hunt for violations of north american airspace. republican representative jack bergman tweeted more information — saying the american people deserve more answers. meanwhile, in china — local media are reporting that the authorities have detected an "unidentified flying object" over waters near the northern port city of rizhao and are ready to shoot it down. a security alert text message was sent warning fishing boats to "be on alert and avoid risks". cbs correspondent cristian benavides gave me this update. the third object in a matter of three days that has been taken down here in north america. the big question right now is, what are these objects? the department of defense gave a briefing earlier in the day saying that they don't believe that these objects were necessarily threats to people on the ground, but they felt that they needed to take them down out of an abundance of caution. as far as this specific object that was

perhaps it is for this on the lake huron. today arrived quickly. this is the vessel, meanwhile , chuck schumer justifies himself on the american air on behalf of the democrats. why didn’t they shoot down the first balloon for so long, we got a huge amount of divorced information watching a chinese balloon as it flew over the usa well, the chinese also got a huge amount of intelligence about the us well, they would have. in any case, this is nothing but an attempt to save a good minute in a bad game. but nato secretary general jens and stoltenberg are broadcasting their usual fears. this is an example of how china and russia are increasing intelligence against nato countries, we see this in the cyber ​​sphere of satellites. and with these balloons, it shows the importance of our vigilance of our enhanced presence, the balloon - this is a sign of the couple to be afraid of china to do something , patrick murphy argues with concern. after all, he is a former secretary of state for the army and the united states 26% of the population. basically unfit f

one of the missiles launched at the object over lake huron missed. these missiles are extremely expensive and dangerous. what do we know about the difficulty it is to get these things and the risk that is acceptable for the pentagon to potentially have a miss? >> that's right. so think about what these are generally used for. it's an air to air missile. it would generally be used to go after another aircraft. something that has a heat signature. something that admits a heat that the missile could latch on to. in the case of these balloon, particularly the one over lake huron, we don't know specifics about. but it was floating along, didn't seem to have any maneuverability. we're not sure about the payload at this point. there's a good chance it didn't have much of a heat signature. we learned from the joint chiefs that it missed and landed fortunately in lake huron and didn't cause any kind of damage or worse on the ground. but it opens up the possibility of how difficult this is. you have an aircraft like an f-16 or 22 that's flying at hundreds of m
