From the Belgian arms trader talking about the retrofitting expenses that would be required to make the old surplus tanks fit for service in the Ukraine: “… replacing asbestos in the engine could cost 75,000 euros …”
That sounds like the old joke about the condemned man in front of a firing squad being refused a last cigarette – because smoking kills, you know.

One theory is that it is a “green” balloon, gathering critical data on wind patterns to transform the case for Anthropogenic Global Warming from stupid scam to slam-dunk scientific certitude.
Another theory is that the balloon is carrying the Big Guy’s 10% from China to the Swamp.
But the most likely theory about why the military does not want to shoot it down is that it would be so embarrassing to try and fail.

?But isn’t that something that can be dealt with. We had asbestos in many schools and they were cleaned up. I think most of the asbestos in warships is on the steam pipes, and one would think those could be cleaned up and then the metal scrapped. It’s a LOT of steel. That must be worth something. I would think it would cost the Brazilians more just to sink it than to sell it as scrap, even if that number was small.
