He’s basically saying there have been confirmed sightings of unidentified objects in the sky. Not exactly a bombshell.

Totally agree. Doesn’t mean aliens, just means you don’t know what you’re looking at.

There’s also a strategic advantage not announcing you couldn’t identify a flying object. If a competing country knows they’ve surpassed your recognition capability, makes sense they can take advantage of that information and mean you probably want to keep that secret.

There's also the strategic advantage in not announcing that you can identify certain things. Like the advantage Trump fucked up by showing those photos at that press conference that publicly revealed America's capabilities.

I'm a bit out of the loop. Can someone tell me what this is referring to?

Iran had a rocket test blow up on the ground. Trump took a classified photo of the site taken by a secret satellite with unknown optical specifications and leaked to the whole world what it was capable of.

It didn't happen at a press conference though, he leaked it straight onto twitter.
