It should make one wonder indeed.
I'm sitting here reflecting ( and no pun intended) on just what the level of electronic warfare , "jamming" pegs at, in that particular zone
at this moment
.......I have no idea whether common radar efficiency can be trashed,....but would be very surprised if there aren't any myriad of ways that have been tried, or are in testing. I live on the flank of an electronic warfare test range, have for years. Scuttlebutt re: ""cloaking devices," are , and have been just WAY to common for me to dismiss this as unintentional or any sorta' accident.

I also concur that immediately convening a prosecutorial committee / courts martial, seems just a WEE bit bloody premature, religion not having one goddam thing to do with it, in my case.
