According to one of the pilots, there is a longer, classified video of the incident that shows the SA page and has the distance listed there.
People make mistakes, but data doesn’t. And according to these pilots and the former head of the DoD UAP program, the data shows that there are craft moving in our airspace with impunity.
That’s why it’s important to look at all the reported cases to get a probabilistic measure. The 3 videos represent 2 cases that occurred. The DoD has over 300 unidentified cases currently. At least 18 exhibit flight characteristics that don’t seem possible.
Wouldn't that be revealing classified info? Probably no punishment if the "classified info" is made up as a prank so he can freely claim it if it isn't real but would be risking punishment if it was.
The sensors are classified but saying the sensors can see 6-8 nm's away is not because that would not be telling our adversaries anything - that technology has been available for decades. Giving away a capability that our adversaries don't know we have would be bad. For example, navy personnel have been saying that submarines go far faster than what the public knows they can (but obviously they cannot say exactly how fast subs go)
