Why is the AF using air to air missles to shoot down big gas bags? Don't they have guns on their planes anymore? I mean, put a few rounds through the bag, let it descend for a while, then snag it with a heavy lift chopper and land it where you want to.

I had the same thought. However, my understanding is this one wasn't a balloon.

But, if I was a missile manufacturer and the pilots only have a 50% hit rate, I'd be making some $100k UFO's and sending them up.
