Drone or UFO Shot Down Over Alaska By F-22's

About this video

Max discusses the February 2023 shootdown of an unidentified high-altitude object over Alaska, occurring days after the Chinese spy balloon incident. He explains UAV/UAS categories by size, range, and capability, noting the Alaska object was car-sized, flew at 40,000 feet, and was likely shot down by F-22s. Max offers his strategic perspective that recent airspace incursions may be testing America’s detection and response capabilities.

Key takeaways

  • UAVs are categorized by size (nano to large), range (31 to over 450 miles), and capability; large UAVs can fly above 18,000 feet and stay airborne for days
  • The Alaska object was car-sized, flew at 40,000 feet in airliner airspace, and could have originated from Russia (55 miles away) or elsewhere based on UAV range capabilities
  • Max believes recent airspace incursions may represent adversaries testing perceived weaknesses in U.S. monitoring and response, making decisive shootdowns strategically important
