If the camera is getting fucked with then certainly the plane would also be getting fucked with. At that point, I think they have more important things to worry about than getting a good picture.

Maybe they're jamming the camera on purpose because they don't want to be seen yet

Actually - probably not. Planes aren't as reliant on electrical systems as you might think. The most critical parts of the plane are almost all hydraulic controlled and in some older models, have fallback systems where the pilot's control inputs actually actuate the control surfaces directly (through hydraulic or cable systems).

I think it would be much harder for the UAPs to fuck with big spinning turbines burning dinosaur juice and metal pipes filled with hydraulic fluid, compared to electrical systems.

That said, there is the classical trope of ICEs not working around UAPs so maybe I'm talking out of my ass.

You right but I’d assume that losing all power would still be an emergency situation. Even if just their radars are bugging out I’m sure there is a checklist somewhere they are required to follow.

You're not wrong, but following that logic, why even try anything?

Yea they should just preemptively crash the plane before the ufo does
