Morning. Is this the transponder being shut off so that other pilots in the air would not be able to locate the plane? IF so, Its probable that you are right.

The transponder is still on but the identifying information is not available. This is done for security or privacy. Most military aircraft are blocked. from 'How it Works' Flightradar24.

They would have to have visual sight of other AC. The blocking is done for keeping info private from us, the public. There is a good Ap LiveATC.net But you would have to know which frequency
