I will say, this guy is one of the less shady characters. Hasn't even seen a ufo in real life, even though many of his peers did. I enjoyed his KONCRETE Podcast.

His description of UFOs isn't anything out of this world either. They can do Mach 1, almost from standstill, with no visible means of propulsion (no heat byproduct for Flir).

But same playbook as every other ufo tard. Release the top secret sensor data and blow trillions of dollars in tech advantage. So he will get to blow hard for a long time. He is leader of a UFO council of industry that seek to understand and exploit these crafts for tech benefit.

I have a pretty good feeling he knows the UFO craze is BS. He speaks very couched on the subject. This article is really about as far as this guy goes. I'm very surprised he even ruled out balloons, as he usually sticks to facts, and the facts in most of these cases isn't so exciting when you realize everything is just forward looking infrared radar. And pilots use the word "saw" interchangeably for things their eyes see and things FLIR and other instruments see.

This crowd is way more than willing to consider infrared radar instrument created images and videos as just as real as light. Problematic.

If we can see it we can shoot it with a laser. Getting spectra on whatever it uses for a shell might be illuminating (ahem). If it runs away at Mach 1 we have also learned something valuable - like "use 2 lasers".

A buddy suggested these craft might be drones with single-use nuclear-adjacent minimally-(if at all)-shielded propulsion. Permitting extraordinary performance. Then at the end of the surveillance mission, let'em drop in the ocean far away from the action and they're history.
