DRONES IN NEW JERSEY AND OTHER STATES CAUSE ALARM AMONG INHABITANTS

 

 Flocks of “drones” have been flying over areas of New Jersey, where there are several important military installations, for days. Residents are wondering what is going on, and many are nervous.

They have reported the situation to the authorities, the FBI has taken action and has even put a $50,000 reward for anyone who can provide concrete information, or better yet, a drone that has somehow been taken down.

The funny thing is that the State of New Jersey can't do anything on its own. It cannot shoot down a drone.

Who has jurisdiction in the matter is the Federal Aviation Administration, but this is a regulatory body in air traffic general, and it also has no direct jurisdiction to bring down a drone.

It is to be assumed that they are not spying devices of an adversary country, because in that case, they would have already been taken down. Then there are two possibilities: either they belong to some industry that does not make itself known in its devices, or they are experiences in tests of models belonging to the military.

The inhabitants of the areas overflown by the drones have said that these devices are large, and have compared their size to that of an SUV, a Sport Utility Vehicle. They average 4.50 meters in length.
