If the unidentified object was a conventional aircraft or even experimental aircraft or drones, my guess they would have be able to figure it out eventually. It was supposedly seen by multiple pilots and it was not the first time since there were multiple sightings and these are just scratching the surface. The fact that they couldn't figure it out is a bit troubling.

It is unlikely a US experimental unman aircraft with some top secret or out of this world technology since who in the world would show off such technology in the middle of a Naval air exercise? Even then, is there any existing propulsion technology that allows for that kind of acceleration? The most advance propulsion we have is the ram jet but it's still in experimental phase and it takes all sort of supporting to get it up the air. It's not something that you can just take out for a quick ride.

If it were an Russian aircraft or Russian drone and for whatever reason the Navy couldn't figure it out, boy, we are in trouble. And since the airspace was used for the Naval exercise, any foreign intruders would have been spotted long before it could have a chance entered the area that is unless the Navy wasn't doing its job or the object possesses some type of technology that cannot be detected by conventional radar.

But then the alien UFO explanation is just as unlikely and it is even more far-fetched than any of those above possibilities.

Another explanation that a little more down to earth is that the pilots were just seeing false radar data but then these were not isolated incidents so it's not likely either.
