For the past two weeks the residents of Seattle have been witnessing a very strange occurrence. Day after day, a nondescript aircraft has been flying circles over their city, and the government hasn’t fully explained why it’s in the area. It’s been identified as a CN-235, and its only marking is an Air Force serial number. What we do know about the aircraft is that it is decked out with highly advanced surveillance equipment.
The heavily modified USAF CASA CN-235-300 transport aircraft was outfitted with elaborate information-gathering hardware, described in all of its apparent detail by the Drive. The aircraft’s callsign is SPUD21, and was in the air as recently as Friday on one of its patrols. Its equipment includes microwave and ultra-high frequency satellite communications gear, as well as a multitude of cutting-edge sensors. It is unmarked, save for the USAF serial on its tail: 66042. SPUD21 flies its missions out of Boeing Field, operating via Clay Lacy Aviation, rather than Boeing’s military ramp.
According to The Drive, it’s equipped with tools that you wouldn’t expect (or probably want) to find on a military aircraft circling a major US city.
Above all else, these types of surveillance systems are especially good at capturing and monitoring so called “patterns of life” over and around a target area. This is an especially useful tool when collecting intelligence on an enemy target or group of targets over time and can open up new possibilities when it comes to the process of finding, fixing and finishing the enemy.
Though it has an Air Force serial number, it’s been difficult to pin down which government agency is operating the plane. The Drive contacted all of the usual suspects including NORTHCOM, Joint Task Force North, the U.S. Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC), U.S. Special Operations Command (SOCOM), and Wright Patterson Air Force Base. None of them would give a straight answer.
Despite denying it initially, eventually AFSOC confessed to owning the plane and claimed that it was engaged in a training mission. However, AFSOC was still pretty tight lipped about the mission. “They would not elaborate or did not know what unit the aircraft belonged to specifically or exactly what type of training it was doing and who else was involved.”
At this point, “training” sounds like a poor excuse. If it was something that innocent, why didn’t the military admit it right away? There’s no reason to hide something like that. Which has to make you wonder if this strange plane is really on a training mission, or if something very serious is going down in Seattle.

LOL! Considering the amount of head up ash antifa sjw losers that populate the West Coast, why yes it IS just like an occupation by the enemy.
Weed eradication. Sessions said he was going after it.
maybe it’s a plane
Ah yes, once again a new revelation of our overlords utilizing technology to identify the patterns of life, to suss out friend or foe from the American people, each one of whom under the overflights of this aircraft were given no chance to consent to such surveillance. But, there I go with my childlike adherence to the meaning of US citizenship, to be free to live life as I choose, a silly old dream from the founding that only the real “adults” of modern real politik understand is false, and that we are subjects of a permanent power oligarchy that flies no flag, and has no face, because it is the system itself, a hungry monster that will eat everything you hold dear if you stand up to it. Or, this could all just be an extension of Jade Helm type exercises, and I’m just a silly old codger who is a paranoid conspiracy theo…..ANALYST. Ty Gore vidal for that one! Deep State 2020!!
When you live in a militaristic society and in a nation that glorifies killing and violence, you have to expect to have the tables turned on you by your own government once in awhile.
Why should we expect this? We are not turning any table.
Well actually you may be right. The US has always had a violent society. It is just getting worse.
they keep getting told to remove their stingray installations (permanently affixed to telephone poles, etc…)
this is the alternative, and it allows the mythological explanation of training
Hopefully it is developing a coordinates map for North Korea
Coordinates or not, you can’t take out North Korea without also destroying South Korea. 10 or 20 million South Koreans deaths may be difficult to explain as collateral damage.
Why should we care?
One less tributary nation!
Good news is these fooolish children know not what they wrought.
Tail number 66042 = 666. These guys are up to no good. Jade Helm?
