Let me understand this: in the age of smart phones and billions of cameras, there is no single photo of the event, but somehow there are top-secret log record included in the article? Yeah right ...

It actually states in the article that the ship's SNOOPIE team was activated, so there likely is footage which isn't available via this FOI request. I'm not in the navy but I wouldn't presume guys on duty are able to take their personal mobile phone with them on deck to film things.

  Make sense what you saying but in all articles of similar nature, there are always top-secret documents but never hard proof, (photo, video or similar) that could be analysed. Even when there are some photos/videos resolution is so low that it looks like it was recorded 20 years ago. So, my default mode is just to discard any of those news as some kind of viral trash paper frenzy... to be honest over years I read so many of those, that if real aliens (or Chinese navy-seals) would land in front of me and ask me for "direction" my heart would not skip a hart beat. It is pretty much as the story 'the boy who cried wolf' after so many information, disinformation, cover up information, misinformation... it is really hard for me to think anything else then that this is yet another NSA's social experiment. Just thought about something, you know always when foreign airplane, ship or any other vehicle invades foreign territory anywhere in the world, immediately it is in headlines. Full footage, there is even a satellite recording, everything is wide open and fully transparent. But in case of these events there is nothing or enough to be misleading. So, why to hide it from public? Maybe because it is US tech. Reason which says it would cause panic, does not add up because after pandemic, global warming and amounts of lies and fear mongering people are indifferent toward everything.

It's really hard to take a picture when you meet a shocking event. It slow down your body. Mind become crazy.
