Gray cylinder passing 10ft underneath military aircraft

The Pilot of TROY21, a military B350 with onboard radar, reported a gray cylindrical object passing directly underneath the aircraft. The pilot estimated the object to be 10 feet under the aircraft when passing by. The pilot then reported observing the object via their onboard radar about 60 miles away. This report was about 1 min after the initial report. The pilot was on an IFR flight plan in direct communication with air traffic control. TROY21 was at an altitude of flight level 200 traveling northwest, and the object was traveling east.

NUFORC Note:

The witness originally called the hotline, and reported that the object moved 60 miles away in a few seconds.
