You can see the videos and listen to the career pilots.
1,000-2,000 Gs level acceleration. Beyond anything on this planet.
Reaction formation. Denial of something as it’d require a recalibration of all beliefs. But let’s see what evidence Trump releases. Will be interesting.
Just real quick...
2000 * 9.81 m/s^2 = 19,620 m/s^2
v=at
After t=3s the “alien” craft will be doing 58,860 m/s = 58.86 km/s = 36.56 mi/s = 131,612 mi/hr.
Assuming an initial distance of about 10 mi, calculate the angular rate of said object from an airborne radar initially perpendicular to the object at that distance. Then find me a radar which has anything remotely approaching that kind of angular slew rate capability, either mechanical or electrical (phased array).
Tell me how the F-18 tracked said object for more then a second under these conditions, and where you come up with the alleged performance.
