"It had to be a bloody missile, probably an un-armed Tomahawk, going for center-of-mass," he said to a senior flight manager of his acquaintance. "They were most likely going for a target drone and testing their capability to go-through normal aircraft traffic to get at the target."

Easily the stupidest/most ignorant comment I've ever heard. Tomahawks don't have air-to-air capability, nor do they ever fly at that altitude. Nor would the US military EVER test a missile through commercial airspace. This idea is especially spacious given that the test suggested would provide meaningless data.

If this quote is real, I very much doubt the authenticity of the "Navy Commander" given that I've never met one that stupid.
