As the Times reports, pilot sightings of UFOs have increased since their 1980s-era radar was upgraded to a more advanced system. As one fighter jet after another got the new radar, pilots began picking up the objects, but ignoring what they thought were false radar tracks.
What fascinated Lieutenant Graves about his interactions with the objects was their ability to stop rapidly, turn instantly, and immediately accelerate to hypersonic speed maneuvers that would burden human pilots with unbearable G-forces. Speed doesnt kill you, Graves said. Stopping does. Or acceleration.

Trust pilots to recognize what is aeronautically impossible
