Actually, us earthlings fly through thunderstorms all the time and its one of the most dangerous things you can do in a plane. There are hundreds to thousands of crashes that have resulted from lightning strikes taking out engines or damaging the integrity of the plane itself. Commercial carriers have multiple engines so are not at such a high as risk, but they still go down as a result of lightning damage. And that's running on strictly mechanical means. If your craft were driven based on electromagnetism or magnetic drives, then a lightning strike could be catastrophic to the system.
And who says these alien vehicles can't fly through electrical storms? The only one saying that is you? You asked for a reason as to why these craft would crash and I pointed to a possible reason and consistent with events surrounding possible crashes. At no time did I say they couldn't fly through such storms, I just identified the dangers of lightning and a possible risk to electromatic drives. Since there have been sightings of UAPs in storms we can be pretty confident they can fly through any conditions.
And save your horse#### about what you think is preposterous. No one cares.
