in a monochrome video (ie black & white like most infra red videos are) any feature can only be on the black to white scale, so essentially a shade of grey. The clouds are varying shades of grey. The lens flare varies in intensity and shape due...
I think it reads a bit better as a sun reflection if you invert it.
Pro tip, Sitrec now has quite a lot of video adjustments, including levels and curves, and a histogram with clipping indicators. There's a more video-focused entry point at...
I just recreated same effect - at 00:01 ufo goes into\behind clouds. Obviously it was sun(top-right) that was obscured by another cloud
Here is video repeated 3 times (without filters & without zoom):

My quick attempt to recreate this ufo by filming sun lens flare
It doesn't go "behind clouds" the same way - it hides rather abruptly (I move phone to the side and sun hides behind a wall) but I bet If I obscure sun using some transparent...
In these two frames it really looks like it’s interacting with the clouds.
At least that’s what it looks like to me.
Again, if solid, possibly a ballon.
If not a ballon, then something else.
Doesn’t behave like any artifact I have previously...
If AARO had identified it, why did DoW release it as a "UFO" without saying it was identified ? That's the part I don't understand.
Especially since this is clearly a balloon. There's no real ambiguity here.
Here's Imbrogno, a short time after that other newspaper article, at a conference. He admits that some of the sightings were spawned by pilots playing tricks. But they were just Wiseguys messing up his very important investigation of a real...
I think we've had enough examples by now not to put much credence in the estimated values for an unfamiliar object's size or altitude, especially at night and in the absence of known objects with which to compare it.
EDIT: I got beat by a few minutes...
Come now, folks. The case was solved at the time. One of the sources says...

As part of the second tranche of records released by the DoW, video PR-071 shows a UAP being intercepted by an F-16 near Lake Huron. Because the video was not properly redacted, hidden information can still be read if the video is adjusted...
I'm seeing a plane in this image and similar ones -- added here are the features that I am seeing, and hopefully it is clear why I think it' a plane rather than a broken contrail.
The winglet and vertical stabilizer are indistinct, but note...
