How might it play out? More low res videos, hires stuff or just nothing?
I think you have to look at the motives of those at the TTSA.
If a faction of the intelligence community is concerned about the threat from UAVs, they may be trying to twist the arm of the those that feel little is to be gained by moving it into the public space.
Interestingly, also, is that there has been no arrest of anyone from TTSA or from within the DOD.
And previously, there was the Fravor video that he displayed on CNN, FOX, BBC and the Navy supplied technical assistance to those stations to display the video.
Another factor may be how much could realistically be disclosed. A high res picture may yield too much technical information both of the plane's equipment and the observed object. Indeed, taking the genie out of the bottle may force out information in associated areas.
I believe the likely play here is to produce political momentum, in order to force hires information to be released.
The most likely way to achieve that will be more low res videos.
