Famous Navy UFO video was camera glare, evidence suggests

So the anomaly that the carrier group tracked, then scrambled fighter jets for. The object that four different pilots saw visually, and was confirmed on multiple different sensors. That was camera glare?

The video is only one piece of the evidence. The pilots are trained, and other sensor systems confirmed what the camera was showing. This analysis is pretty flimsy.

Mick West debunked these to my satisfaction ages ago. The only question I have left is whether the whole thing was a US Navy psyop or whether the navy was just looking the other way and playing coy when those pilots were creating a retirement career in UFOlogy.

This analysis even admits that there’s an object required for the “glare” to exist.

This analysis doesn’t reject an actual object being tracked: it confirms it and describes it as one that causes IR glare!

I came here to say this.

There will be no further discussion.

Or if you follow Hanlon's razor, if the Navy is incredibly (scarily) incompetent!

So the claim is...these highly trained pilots and the other sensor systems didn't realize that objects cause IR glare, but this guy did. Case closed.
