Sensor dust...chased by fighter jets?

 ;)  Occasionally seen by f16 but will be detected more often by f35, according to Lockheed Martin.

Sensor dust spots don't roll into a left turn like this one did.

I often wonder why the newsreel pix of rockets hitting targets, as viewed from above, are always perfectly steady and don't change the field of view one iota. Space tripods I guess.
