Pilots always claim sensor interference- it covers any mistakes they may have made.

Look, it was just a weather balloon, folks. Nothing to see here. Sounds familiar.

F-22 pilots are not scrubs that got the job by luck. To be one, means being among the best. If it is being reported accurately, that the F-22 pilot says there was some kind of interference coming from the object, then there likely really is something to it.

Definitely not scrubs...
