Audio of pilots debating what exactly they were seeing moments before a US F-16 fighter jet shot down an 'unidentfied object' over Lake Huron has been released, The Daily Star reports. Top ranking officials remain clueless as to what the object shot down on Sunday was, as it is the third in the past few days.
An exchange can be heard between the pilots as they hurtle through the air, in which one says: "I wouldn't really call it a balloon... I don't know what... I can see it outside with my eyes." Military officials have described the object as an "octagonal structure".
The pilots, understandably stunned, begin debating what the odd object should be named. "I'm gonna call it like a container," says one of the pilots. "Can't really tell though what the shape is. The size of it, that would be challenging, it's so slow and so small, I just can't see it."
