I think this theory makes a lot of sense. But I have a couple of questions: If I understand this correctly we are assuming the rotation is caused by the gimbal crossing the centerline and having to make a rotation to keep tracking the object without locking correct? Shouldn't then the rotation...

My understanding of this committee is based on this https://www.intelligence.senate.gov/about "By resolution, the 15 SSCI members include two members (one per side) from the Appropriations, Armed Services, Foreign Relations, and Judiciary Committees in order to ensure appropriate coordination...

Yes the curvature of the earth limits the range of a radar system over the ground. This is one reason why the NAVY augments coverage with AWACS. There are a lot of variables here such as the stingers trajectory, distance from Princeton (or the AWACS in the air), timing of the exercise etc. Bear...

But this is not what is happening. Marco Rubio is Chair of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence. That committee "is dedicated to overseeing the United States Intelligence Community—the agencies and bureaus of the federal government of the United States which provide information and...

Sorry for the confusion. My second and third point should be read as: why didn't the Princeton spot the stingers flying? If so many targets got lost it would be a pretty big training event and it should be clearly visible on the Princeton's radar over several days. There would be no doubts on...

This=US Department of Defense It=The videos and pilot reports of UAPs Then why are they saying the reason the task force came to be is the fact that during congressional hearings the DoD was unable to provide satisfactory answers to questions regarding pilot reported intrusions and videos? Sen...

Let's assume the Navy/DoD knows exactly what the videos depict but they don't tell us because of some kind of secrecy reason (top secret tech used/depicted, black project etc.). Why would they be going through this whole charade 15 years later? The most reasonable explanation seems to be: "to...

Interesting. However many issues with the stinger theory in my mind: The document you report proposes stinger training in 2008. That's 4 years after the incident. A stinger flies at mach 2.5 for only a short distance (flight time of seconds) and starting from the ground (fixed point)...

I agree with much that has been said above. And I agree with others that the definition they gave of UFO is just poor writing and would be fixed by saying that they "appear to defy the laws of physics". I think this sums up the article pretty well: I think they are simply saying that from...

Remember those are military grade radars. They are the best sensors in the world. Their mission is to track stealth planes at extreme range. The radar cross section of a stealth fighter isn't different from a bird according to some sources (it's all classified of course). An F-22 is supposedly...

What do you mean? Birds should have a radar return (source: https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/how-doppler-radar-can-track-bird-migrations-180952834/) If this was a bird shouldn't its shape be more discernible at such a range (around 5400 meters at the low point in the video)?

Absolutely, but once again: remember those are professionals trained exactly at that. They are Navy pilots flying over water most of their adult life and estimating distance and size very accurately is a pretty basic and required skill for their line of work. Of course they make mistakes as they...

Fravor: "It's about the size of a 737, has the shape of a cross and is pointing to the east" Minute 9 here (Fravor on Joe Rogan): Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Eco2s3-0zsQ I think he meant subs don't have a "cross" profile. No wings. Initially the pilots interpreted this as an...

We also have the CO of Marine Hornet squadron VMFA-232, Lieutenant Colonel “Cheeks” Kurth that was in a single seater F-18 and saw the water disturbance. (not the tic-tac?) Source: https://sofrep.com/fightersweep/x-files-edition/ As Cheeks approached the spot he was being vectored to, Princeton...

That's absolutely normal. To "cut across" while in a bank with a more manoeuvrable opponent the most effective/aggressive manoeuvre would be to increase angle of bank to invert and drop the nose pulling hard on the stick as gravity and lift will assist you to turn faster. Something like a low...

According to this: Source: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7qu-J_wpp70&list=PL6qiX7cPdDkDtNT7fAWuj9apkXl6YvY81 Their "close encounter kind" list only goes up to 4 and CE5 is a "new kind" which is "human initiated" as opposed to the others being UFO initiated.

What does "altered mental state" mean? Drugs? Alcohol? I can spend a couple of hours on my roof stargazing if you send me a test protocol that involves alcohol and I'm sure I can recruit a couple of weirdos to do it with me :-P Also tricky: getting people to try it with the right equipment...

I was exaggerating with the years, approximating with the us. :) I said I wanted Mick to discuss the subject with an F-18 pilot not with an all knowing infallible god (although I would very much like to see that too ;)) Everybody makes mistakes. The only truths I believe in are the ones...

I totally agree we could make some reasonable hypothesis. @Mick West could you show your mathematical model for the static UFO hypothesis updated with the correct turn radius? It would help visualise ranges I think. The pilots say: "they are all going against the wind. The wind is 120 knots to...

I see your point. However remember most pilots have scientific degrees and backgrounds. They also know these systems in depth and are very comfortable with the physics and dynamics of flight. You won't have any problems discussing rotating glare with any F-18 pilot or any other detail on those...
