That first footage is pretty clearly a drone, nothing unusual about it, especially at the border.

The article is behind a paywall, so I can’t see if it shows the drone in question. However, I think it’d be a failure of border patrol to not be to identify drones and have them labeled as UAP. If drone footage was considered UAP then they would have a large archive of UAP.
To play devils advocate, I could imagine Border Patrol failing to ID the cartel using jetpacks seeing as how it’s such a new consumer accessible tech.
Still hard to wrap my mind around the fact that actual jetpacks are a reality if you’ve got the money. Always said I’d hoped I’d live to see flying cars, real VR, and jetpacks in my lifetime when I was a kid. Didn’t expect that to be a reality by my early 30s!
True. That is a bizarre development that I wouldn’t expect to be accounted for.
There are a lot of futuristic fantasies from my youth coming true, even if not the most practical or accessible. Though, as cool as the jetpacks probably are, I’ll stick to the safety of my VR.
Yeah I don’t think I’d ride in one of those either… wouldn’t want to end up flying like a brick at low altitude if something failed.
Someone posted a website from some company specifically with the drone in the first few minutes a few weeks ago in a different thread, but i have been unable to track it down. Obviously the detail isn’t there to be certain, but the size and movements were all appropriate. Basically a simple balloon bladder system with simple jets for simple control (notice how it looks drunk).
