I've Never Run an Airline Before.

Malaysia says that they didn't share this information immediately because of national security concerns, essentially they didn't want neighboring countries learning about their radar capabilities. They also claimed the military didn't intervene with flight 370 because it was quote, a friendly aircraft and they didn't think opposed to threat. Meaning Malaysia sitting on this information sent searchers to the entirely wrong body of water in the crucial early days of the search. So if we had told you like what we had seen, we could have actually looked in the right place.
