>One official told ABC News that the object was “cylindrical and silver-ish gray” and gave the “balloon-like” appearance of floating without “any sort of propulsion” It was described as "cylindrical and silver-ish gray" and seemed to be floating, a U.S. official said.
Any idea why they refuse to confirm that its a balloon if it is? The pilots confirmed its "unmanned" but why wont they confirm if its a balloon or not? strange dont you think.
"Some pilots said the object “interfered with their sensors” on the planes"
"Some pilots also claimed to have seen no identifiable propulsion on the object, and could not explain how it was staying in the air, despite the object cruising at an altitude of 40,000 feet."
That sounds vaguely similar to the one purportedly shot down over Russia last month:
"Vasily Golubev, the governor of Rostov oblast, wrote on Telegram that a "small-size object in the shape of a ball" had been discovered flying "in the wind" at an altitude of around one and a half miles on January 3."
Any connection to the spherical metallic ball UFO caught over Iraq by U.S. reconnaissance aircraft in 2016?
