Description

This is a really cool stitched video of Gimbal, that gives a great perspective on how the object looks relative to the clouds. I simply sped it up twice : https://youtu.be/5_eXsOovx4w

The object appears to climb at the end, right when 3D reconstructions predict a vertical U-turn at 6-8Nm,

at the range provided by Ryan Graves and confirmed by the Weapon System Officer who was in the F-18.

Remember, most of the horizontal motion we see in the video is due to parallax (F-18 turn). I'm pointing to the vertical position of the object relative to the clouds.

This gives weight to the trajectory described by the aviators (stop/reverse direction, as seen on their radar) being the one.

I'll add that none of the three Navy videos are explained (Gimbal/GoFast/FLIR1), and dismissing those as air trash and optical illusions does not do justice to the state of analyses/evidence.
