              Ok, it would be better to say that now there’s something to discuss.

              I have wondered many times if this isn’t some new tech that was being tested. The reason I don’t think it is, is in this situations they typically would have debriefed the pilots and everyone else who might have seen it, and told them not to discuss it (like in a “you will never fly again” way).

              That would them mean it’s the same situation but the craft belonged to another government.

              I guess I am not sure who that ended up getting to that point in the ocean without otherwise being detected.

              Since we know Russia is essential incapable of tech like this, that would probably mean China made this.

              But they don’t seem likely to walk to a battle group so close to the US and engage in jamming sensors and so on. They will mess with an individual boat in disputed waters, I’ll give you that.

              So, we are back to “it’s US tech” but they treated this like no other interaction when experimental craft are involved and ton of people are involved in the cover up. Other people were flying with Fravor that day including a second set of planes that went out when he returned (that’s who filmed the Tic Tac video). There were radar operators, other people who watched the video after it was brought back to the carrier, etc.

              I don’t know what happened but I don’t think it was testing range stuff.

              Graves encounter, I think is possibly more likely since it is possible it since kind of holo projection that’s so far in advance of anything commercially available that it’s hard to imagine combined with also being able to affect an entire groups sensors to fake imagery etc (very much possible if done with permission and cooperation). Still, he seems very credible and again was not the only observed of this.
