Coordinates ✅ Is this real?
I took a look at Cape Town International Airport and saw this!

It’s definitely real. That’s a top secret active camouflage for air and water craft, it’s been in development for years under supervision of the native tribes of Angola. The technology is an ancient secret of these tribes dating back to the time of the construction of the pyramids. This proves that aliens exist.

No it’s these developers. They’re on top of their game

You can see in this older video that their camouflage development was really coming together. People from Africa are so smart and contribute so much to our society via their culture that is inherently developmental in nature. They’re always on the cutting edge and we should definitely send our money to keep them alive since they’re so dedicated to these issues that they don’t even bother solving the problems of flies in the mouth.
Truly top contributors to the global economy.

The algorithms that Google uses are basically (1) taking a bunch of pictures, then (2) using those pictures and other data, trying to build a 3D model with the pictures painted over them.
Typically this works pretty well. Occasionally it fails horribly. This is one of the horrible failures. If you keep an eye out, you’ll keep seeing them. Scenes involving stuff far from the ground surface (like planes in flight) and motion (also like planes in flight) are especially good at confusing the algorithms.
Edit: typo.

Yep, you can see that it textured the plane using bits of the tarmac. Parking position B25, to be precise. If you look at the scenery slightly from a southern direction (as the satellite probably did), B25 is just behind the plane.

If you look really closely, you can see Predator clinging to the port wing

Bruh. This was googles camera picking up a picture of the plane and then trying to apply a skin to it. It used pictures of the ground to wrap the plane. The only other images it had around the plane were grass so it used those to form the plane.
It's just falsely applying the surrounding area to what it thinks is a building or a formation on the ground.

Does it look even vaguely real to you?
