Videos of these low-level flyover tests are at the link.
That North Korean bomb is supposed to be around here somewhere.
Seems odd to measure background radiation in such a specific area.
Does anyone know if the three mile section check is above WWII section of Arlington???
Meaning they are looking for neutron spike because there’s a device in the area.
Sure, totally believable. /s
It’s really a “google” helicopter”.
Look for one of these contraptions under the helicopter

That helicopter was making passes in Cape May County,NJ near Ocean City yesterday around 9:30 am.
Sneaking a device that emits radiation via truck would be difficult due to the monitors mounted all around the nation.
It would be far easier to fly such a device over the target area and detonate.....you get a far larger dispersal pattern and, depending on the device, a more effective EMP blast.
There are not enough monitors at small airports currently.
I wonder how they accounted for background radiation in second-hand smoke “studies”.
According to the surgeon general, there is no safe level of cigarette smoke, however, there is apparently a safe level of radiation exposure.
“The helicopter will fly in a grid pattern over the area at 150 feet (or higher) above the ground surface, at a speed of approximately 80 miles per hour.”
Thank goodness guns aren’t allowed in Washington DC.
I’ve seen this thing flying around before.
