I was hesitating to be the first to respond in this thread because this will not be very supportive of the idea that these things are either related to the classic UFO phenomena or "strategic weapons" or "intelligence gathering tools."
The very idea that 'secrecy' is important because authorities declare there is some sort of 'danger' in spawning "questions" in the public sphere, raises concerns about the nature of the devices we were observing. Creating a perception that UFO's are suddenly now a "threat" was perhaps the most egregious indicator that it was not secrecy about UFO's at all, but of the ignorance about what a third-party technology represents in terms of the global theater.
That "aliens" would need to use "balloons" is ludicrous. Yet for all the history of these 'objects' we have repeatedly faced associations it with "potential extraterrestrial" activity. And isn't it peculiar that this offered photo presents an object very similar to a classic "tic tac" image?

It seems implicitly true that this "shot down" object survived a descent from altitude... and was 'cushioned' enough to land intact... (the photo might seem artificially-generated and the scale of the image is hard to discern.)
I want to say that I am not inclined to associate this story with UFO's at all... but then I feel the same about the "tic tac" imagery offered by the MIC, and their directed media-frenzied focus. (What if, for example, all those "tic-tacs" were simply objects released from altitude by a balloon and then 'photographed' during descent as "mysteriously" powered devices? Not saying that is the case, but offering it as yet another possible 'misrepresentation' from authorities and agencies already known to rely on misrepresentation as a matter of course.)
Sorry if it isn't the response you were looking for... but I think your thread is a very important contribution to the subject matter. Sorry the response from ATS was less than what you were hoping for.
Perhaps more will respond as time passes... and distractions evaporate.
This merits discussion, in my opinion...
[While not "cylindrical" I EDIT ATO ADD a newer video offering up by FoxNews (allegedly taken from a docuseries) which demonstrates more 'easily artificially-generated material.' This is now the kind of 'supporting evidence' we are frequently offered... previously unachievable in low-tech film. Caveat Emptor.]
