in ww2 the only time the japanese "successfully" attacked the mainland us was via balloon.

however they sent several hundred of them and only managed to kill a group of kids who were camping in the woods

Maybe these balloons are like the Kaiju from Pacific Rim.

Right now we are seeing incursions once a week. At the current rate of escalation we may be soon seeing new balloons every hour!
