Perhaps it is time to shoot one down and see what it is and who it came from. We have already established we can shoot down unidentified aircraft in our space so why not? In all these stories I have read, I've never read that we attempted to bring one down until the balloon fiasco.
Should not be hard to being one down or at least try.

Why would you attempt to destroy an object possessing performance capability you don't understand and can't compete with?
Have you ever conducted a risk assessment or is your curiosity worth unbound risk?

“I’ve never read that we attempted to bring one down until the balloon fiasco.”
It depends what you mean by “we”. Foreign militaries, yes, as far back as WWII, according to folklore (probably true) relayed from the families of the deceased foreign pilots who encountered some sort of retaliatory action.

Might be hard to shoot down if they are some form of advanced hologram.
