I was looking at that plane. It climbed to 35,000 feet and then went away. They must have turned off their transponder. It was a business jet.
It could simply be a lack of coverage.
On ADS-B?
Yes.
I’ve worked as an ATCO for 20+ years, 4+ as an oceanic controller. I’ve never had a/c disappearing from ADS without the pilot switching off the transponder. I work in EU though, and the satellite reception here might be better. But to lose sat connection has never happened for me in the recent years.
Military has Gulfstream and Learjet jets.
