In a follow-up to our reporting earlier this week on the mysterious boom heard around San Diego on the evening of June 8th, 2021, we can now report that Marine Corps Air Station Miramar has put out a statement saying essentialy "it was probably us."
We came to a similar conclusion that it was indeed a fighter aircraft likely from one of two bases in the region that were operating off the coast that night. One aircraft, in particular, was tracked online well exceeding the sound barrier quite close to shore off San Diego and the Baja Peninsula.

A tweet from MCAS Miramar starts out comically with "So, about the other night..." and continues with the following statement:
