First try filming a plane high in the sky with an average smartphone, it's gonna turn out like shit and you're barely gonna be able to tell its a plane even if you use the phone's camera with the proper settings, which most people won't be. You're greatly overestimating the camera of the average smartphone.
Secondly these things are (reportedly) fast as fuck, like order of magnitude of mach 10, they're gonna be gone by the time you start filming in all likelihood.
Thirdly the real sighting just might be really rare. They might just be interested in military capabilities and have no reason to fly around civilian areas.
isn’t it more likely that they’re human military prototype aircraft instead of visiting alien spacecraft?
Why is that more likely? The kind of manuverability they were talking about literally doesn't even exist in most sci-fi. I mean maybe they were heavily embellishing what they saw, we never really did see the radar data.
I don't think we can for sure discount aliens though.
This is not a good argument for multiple reasons.
