The story I just saw, with a nice video as well, makes me wonder about the “full of glitches” view. They show something on their sensors (radar, infrared) but then note they can not see anything visually but should. Is the conclusion we have some form of cloaking technology at play (it does exist from what I hear but currently only very limited application due to constraints)? So perhaps we should assume the pilot’s vision is fine (they are supposed to have very good eye sight after all) and there is just something odd in the sensors—or even that there are conditions that produce such false positives.
May be they deliberately tested some kind of radar-jamming technology, which produces false targets on radar. However, if true, they would keep the whole story secret.
