Been looking in to the Nimitz incident and am wondering about what one of the pilots said about miles/second and the lack of a sonic boom on observation. Occurred in November 2004.

Bit of background and link:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Nimitz_UFO_incident

Basically some fighter pilots on a training mission observed some "Anomalous Aerial Vehicles" and claimed they defied physics in their observed movements. The claims were that the craft moved from 60,000 feet to 50 feet in "a matter of seconds" with departure, turning and stopping velocities thought to be impossible.

Furthermore, the pilots claimed that there were no sonic-booms (of where there should have been many at such a rapid descent). Also when the pilots started to tail the "pill-shaped" craft, the object darted away only to be reported by radar as appearing sixty miles away from where the pilots last spotted it with "seconds" between the two events, requiring the event to have the object travel at least 42,000 miles per hour.

First of all, yeah, this could be total bullshit and there already exist a few logical explanations, but it has yet to be debunked and according to testimony by pilots present at the event, the rest of the recordings and data were confiscated almost immediately after the incident.

Given our aeronautical technology, what we know about human endurance at speed, and physical laws on Earth, is this event impossible? Anyone have a thought?
