Our military lied. There never were any other objects except our own surveillance balloons, one of which we did shoot down, while claiming it was China's
The objects were UFOs that easily evaded the $$$ missiles, and we gave up after one or two wasted efforts
There were objects, but they were so sophisticated that they'd just cloak themselves, and disappear from radar, making it so no target could be locked on
Or, we actually did shoot something down, but our recovery team(s) and military are truly incompetent
A few answers come to mind to explain this:

Excellent!
