FRANK01.

This is coolbert:

Shoot-down Chinese bandit intruder balloon American airspace radio communications between pilots and ground control as copied in real time.

"Intercept audio: Listen to the jet that shot down the Chinese Spy Balloon (actual radio audio)"

Thanks to Airplane Ian  Feb 4, 2023 as found on You Tube:

"Composite clip including interception audio from the shoot-down of the suspected Chinese spy balloon off the coast of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina. Also includes video of the shoot-down and a time lapse of ADS-B flight tracking data from the region. The shooter is FRANK01, a F-22 based out of Langley AFB, and they are coordinated with HUNTRESS, callsign for NORAD's Eastern Air Defense Sector control."


Look at the inset far-left bottom of the video! Shows abundance of commercial air traffic vicinity Myrtle Beach at the time of the shoot-down!

And from comments from an acknowledged aviation authority the lack or non-use of non-secure communications:

"I am surprised that this was all done 'in the clear'. Combat planes have 'secure voice', a scrambled radio transmission and reception device that prohibits others from listening in . . . [first used] in the Vietnam War in mid-late 1972, with great success. It is undoubtedly far more efficient and useful now."
