You seem to be saying it paralleled rather closely the behavior of a high flying cruise missile that then drops down to lower level flight to attack a ship.
We are saying the UFO did not parallel that behavior. It dropped rapidly straight down vertically. It stopped abruptly above the water. Then it did other things.
Even on radar, the difference between the UFO and typical cruise missile behavior should have been quite evident.
Certainly adding the view narratives of the pilots could have well made things abundantly clearer on such scores.
I am not saying it aliens. I am saying that USS Princeton saw it on radar displaying an attack profile.
If the Captain didn’t order general quarters he should be canned.
Do you want to argue about this still?
