Chinese satellite reveals photos of US Nellis Air Force Base

[Fledgingwings]

I have seen too many this kind of photos before. Which were all about other countries' military bases and shot by US satellites. Finally US got a revenge.

You mean China got revenge.

The things you've mentioned does not matter to those pathetic haters, because "HATE" is all it take for them as being reasonable troll and bash anything related to China, have you not noticing they're all south viets that even their own called them as "NO dignity"?
IMO, the most disgusting insecure behavior is that they using every opportunities to brag about their "self proclaimed resume" like a cheap attention wh..., most pathetic of all is to belittle others that not agreeing with them, i've been serving in the military, i've so so that that access to top top top secrets LOL

Check out how low people can get

"PS. I have US TS/SCI clearance, I had and STILL HAVE access to Keyhole satellite feed, I am not showing you that does not mean keyhole satellite does not exist."
Boy this is as funny and true as i claimed that i've clearance to your lomochoiheight

Greyboy keep calm please and stop using personal insults. Debate with all the passion you like but we can't have you using words like this.

I don't know how this can be worth a post to begin with.

Anyone with google access can look at any US Air Base anytime they want with UHD picture (well, you have to pay for the service tho)

WOW, I spied a B-2 over Whiteman AFB : Using Google Map I am an international spy

Honestly, what is the point on this??

Hey, not that simple man!!!

If you are thinking to use google maps for war time scenarios, then what can I say... It is NOT about just resolution.... It has much more to do with the up-to-date information and the certainity, confidence level and security.

Do you know, when does Google update its images? because when I use Google to look for my location, it gives me pictures from the summer time but at that time all the streets were covered with thick snow. So can you use more than 6 months old pictures to understand what is going on?

Furthermore, security and surety of the data are vital....Google is a US company so it will not provide any sensitve data of US military installations to its rivals without the approval from the concerned authorities like NSA, Pentagon etc...
That's why all major countries invest in their own satellites especially for spying.

It is beyond hilarious to see the usual pack downplay this significant development. It is sour grapes. This is huge. How many nations can even claim they have indigenous satellite imagery? It puts China in a league of its own. Kudos to China. No one relies on Google for real time and reliable imagery. Having your own satellites gives a nation unprecedented powers.

according to satellite watcher website n2yo (which track and follow different satellite), about 63 country/entity have this ability.

There is a world of difference between having your own network of satellites which are able to cover any part of the world.

How many of these nations are hiring satellites from other nations to integrate their imagery sensors? Like I said, nothing beats owning your own indigenous satellites.

Right guys we can take the language semantics somewhere else. Please stick to the topic. I would also politely ask all posters to just post in English.

technically, satellite can change it plane so a single satellite can be used to cover any part of the world. Yes, the service game and operational delay would mean a lot but you can always re-task a satellite to cover different part of the world.

You want to change inclination of Sat? Are you for real?
