Do you really think the military, with all their technological snazz and pizazz, is going to be chasing lens flares?
Consider the fact that this was a radar incident too. And that the ships were using meshed synthesized radar, not just one ship at a time.
- daemin 7y agoI would more likely consider it a software bug than anything else. Some sensor data is feeding in and making it appear that something is there.
- JulianMorrison 7y agoA radar bug and a FLIR bug, that exists in 3D space such that multiple seperate jets maneuvering around it see it as having a position? That's an issue in itself if so.
- daemin 7y agoIf all systems are interconnected and transfer data between them, then an anomalous reading could get carried through like a virus...
- JulianMorrison 7y agoThrough the meshed radar, conceivably. You wouldn't expect it to affect the FLIR (which is displaying a sensor's input, not a tactical view) or to have an effective "position" in space.
- daemin 7y agoIf it's an image from a radar sensor then it still could be a software bug because the raw data has to be processed somehow and an image generated from it. Complex software systems can have quite bizarre bugs when they interact with each other.
