There have been alot of research dollars spent on UFOs since the fifties.
Money talks and BS walks.
I estimate billions of dollars of research, programs, investigations and reports have been devoted to this subject.

Flight characteristics of UAPs usually have an ionized air glow around them. Brightness can vary. Travel is slower in the sea but still a factor of 10 or more compared to known vehicles. There seems to be elements of a controlled technology that encompasses both mass and energy as well as space and time manipulation.
These differences have been delineated since 1954 yet we still do not have a public explanation. Aerodynamic shapes are not required since there are no lift or propulsion requirements. Size can vary from 6 meters to over a mile.
