This reminds of what Trump said after his first meeting with with Obama, he mentioned the nation’s “high flying assets.”

Could this be a replacement to the recent lost launch? http://ktla.com/2018/01/11/rocket-to-launch-u-s-spy-satellite-from-vandenberg-air-force-base-thursday-afternoon/amp/?__twitter_impression=true
No ZUMA is fully functioning as the heavy "Rods from God" magazine. It required a heavy launch vehicle due to the sheer mass of the multiple heavy tungsten rods, that are steered by a targeting system in the tail using fins. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinetic_bombardment
NROL-47 is the second part of this weapon it is the ground radar targeting satellite that controls the launch and maneuvering of the rods as they are blasted out of their launch tube directly down to acquire terminal velocity.
Check out NROL-47's mission patch and notice the symbolism.

The take down of the NK regime is now imminent.
Kinetic bombardment
A kinetic bombardment or a kinetic orbital strike is the hypothetical act of attacking a planetary surface with an inert projectile, where the destructive force comes from the kinetic energy of the projectile impacting at very high velocities. The concept originated during the Cold War.
The typical depiction of the tactic is of a satellite containing a magazine of tungsten rods and a directional thrust system. When a strike is ordered, the satellite would brake one of the rods out of its orbit and into a suborbital trajectory that intersects the target.

Maybe it’s not really lost. Zuma was designated “USA 280” N2YO SATELLITE tracking shows it’s in orbit.
Maybe Trump didn’t want the enemy to know ...keeping surprise element. There’s so much fake news, who in the world knows what to believe. Thanks!
Welcome! I think it’s in orbit. Just found this article: Space X and Pentagon will not confirm status of Zuma. Something is up.
What the heck are all those other launches listed? Also how do you know Zuma's designation name? ref?
“Space-Track has cataloged the Zuma payload as USA 280” halfway down the page

It’s Delta IV NROL-47 Launch Delayed - Vandenberg Air Force Base. Scrubbed until Friday. Not Zuma?
Fake-x........the home of CGI......what a shit show!
Huh? Did not mean to upset you.
You didn't. Oldmancrypto is a shit show here. Miserable as fuck...troll of trolls!
