I know what my eyes saw Malcolm, and nothing man made can do what this thing did. My eyesight was good as a kid, and still is pretty good for a 40 year old, and at only 14' or so away, it's close enough for me not to be making mistakes in identification.
Like many in my position, I was glued to the spot - brain was alive but body was imoveable. I felt no harm was directed at me, I remember that much and they/it obviously wasn't worried about me seeing it.
Think about spy planes from a variety of countries - they're meant to be hidden, but occasionally, they get seen. Either by mistake, or deliberate means. Given that the Japanese are already working on cloaking (like in the movie Predator), sure, we can hide ourselves, but not everyone/thing wants to hide I guess.
