Or they thought they had a stealthy little bird the locals wouldn't ever see, and got busted.
Being full of human beings out military is fallible.
>Also, I would have to imagine that any supervisor involved would have immediately contacted the civilian agency involved to say "it's us, please back off."
I would imagine them doing no such thing. Most of the nuclear program wasn't disclosed to anyone until Kodak discovered it on their own.
Our military has a host of secrets and everyone in it does their sincere best to keep them, particularly when ordered to.
>would have immediately contacted the civilian agency involved to say "it's us, please back off."
If the civilian agencies - or any entity really - doesn't have "need to know", they won't be told a thing. Based on this thing escaping, they don't need to know anything at all.
