First, Mick West said he didn't want to waste any more time on those silly videos, so he didn't tell anybody what to believe, all he did was mention some debunks other people had already done.
Second, where is your evidence the images posted by Donald Trump are from SBIRS?
Third, speaking of SBIRS, that's something Ashton forbes mentioned in the Danny Jones podcast I recently posted. When Nico the VFX guy said satellite images should show some parallax, he showed an example of how that looked from a satellite, I think it may have been the ISS-international space station.

Bottom line. How Mick West conducts his business compared to Ashton Forbes is very different and telling.

I could not care less about either person. These videos should have nothing to do with either of them so I will defer from talking about them any longer.
If we go by what we see in the SBIRS demonstration below, it seems as though these satellites are kept a great distance from Earth so I could see why there's no clear parallax at that distance.

Also, I'm curious who you think made these videos. What's the story you've come up with to fit your hoaxer scenario?

THE AMATEUR ASTRONOMERS WHO HUNT SPY SATELLITES
Today, amateur spy satellite hunters are tracking more than 360 satellites, rocket bodies, and other launch debris in their secret orbits. In the future, satellite hunters will have their work cut out for them as low Earth orbit becomes increasingly crowded with new spy satellites launched on a new generation of commercial rockets. The US military manifest already has dozens of launches on its schedule through 2023, DARPA is planning to launch a fleet of cheap spy satellites called Blackjack starting in 2021, and now the private sector is even starting to get in on the spy satellite business.

Ashton Forbes swindled for 3k
The rar file that Ashton got that was so obviously fake, turned out being more of a scam after he revealed the e-mails of him talking back and forth with the 'leaker'. He ended up giving the leaker $3,000 USD to get the file and began calling out everyone in the chat calling them idiots telling them that it was not a scam when it obviously was.
Eventually the password got figured out and yep, sure enough it was a scam.

You are sourcing people who have "found" a couple of screenshots online that kinda match a couple frames in the videos. Since you can't do it yourself, ask your pals to find the complete source files to the hoax videos. Then, I can admit it has been PROVEN fake.

If you ignore the poorly rendered CGI
If you ignore the videos used stock footage.
If you ignore the contrails move and jump independently of the actual jet.
If you ignore the stupid argument the contrails clearly rendered to be contrails is some sort of cargo fire

I've already answered the satellite question in my last replies.
The satellite video says NROL-22 (also known as USA-184) which is the first launch of the Space-Based Infrared System (SBIRS) in 2006.

I already addressed this. The video was stabilized looking at the plane itself - not the smoke. Stuff is going to jump around when you stabilize a single point on a video.

The plane's altitude was too low for contrails to form.

It is in a Molniya orbit with a perigee of 1,138 kilometres (707 mi), an apogee of 39,210 kilometres (24,360 mi), and 63.2° of inclination.[1] In addition to its SIGINT payload, USA-184 also carries two secondary instruments; the SBIRS-HEO-1 missile detection payload as part of the Space-Based Infrared System programme, and NASA's TWINS-1 or TWINS-A magnetospheric science instrument as part of the TWINS programme.[2]
USA-184 - Wikipedia
These satellites at geostationary orbits collect radio emissions (SIGINT) and act as replacements for the older constellation of Magnum satellites.

Original SBIRS Low
edit
The SBIRS Low program was originally expected to consist of about 24 satellites in low Earth orbit. The primary purpose of SBIRS Low was the tracking of ballistic missiles; with discrimination between warheads and other objects, such as decoys, that separate from the missile bodies throughout the middle portion of their flights. The system was to have two major sensors, coordinated by an on-board computer:
* a scanning infrared sensor, designed to acquire ballistic missiles in the early stages of flight, and
* a tracking infrared sensor, designed to follow missiles, warheads, and other objects such as debris and decoys during the middle and later stages of flight. The tracking sensor would be cooled to very low temperatures.
SBIRS Low's original deployment schedule was 2010, the date when its capabilities were said to be needed by the National Missile Defense System.
Space-Based Infrared System - Wikipedia
en.m.wikipedia.org...
A mission to study the connections between different areas of Earth's magnetosphere, this used matching instruments, TWINS 1 and 2, launched on separate U.S. military reconnaissance satellites. Once aloft, they captured stereoscopic images of the Earth's magnetosphere for the first time by observing from two widely spaced positions, recording 3D visualizations of the large-scale structures and dynamics within the magnetosphere.

Since we see smoke in the videos, what else must it be? You would assume smoke, right?
