question -did a spy craft from the us crashed?,news people were filming,and showed on russian tv,and divers are going to dig it up,

[MineralMan]

Minus any corroborating information, I'd guess this is a hoax. Sounds like nonsense to me.

The word "Aroura" comes instantly to mind whenever I wonder about this guy's credibility.

Milo, Read this thoroughly, every word is true. Pass this along to any and all points possible.

Funny how this begins with BOTH of the two dead giveaways that a spam email is a hoax. Gee, I wonder if the same applies here.

[Labyrinthos]

The light gray colord craft, with no apparent "seams" or rivet patterns visible, was estimated by onlookers to be approximately the size of a small airliner, or light transport aircraft, and traveling at speeds in excess of Mach 2 (twice the speed of sound)

I would not expect to see seams or rivet patterns on an aircraft flying at mach 2. Sounds like a hoax to me.

did a spy craft from the us crashed?,

This was as reported by Art Bell. Too many questions rolled up into one.

(1) Was it a spy craft?
(2) Was it American?
(3) Did it crash?

---

The obvious answer to all 3 guesses is no. But we might ask if it is a terrestrial craft owned by time travellers from our future spotted entering one of the side entrances to their secret underwater base, said base being the entirety of the hollow inner earth.

Sounds very similar to the Shag Harbour UFO story:

The Shag Harbour UFO
with the help of http://www.renaissoft.com/ufocanada/shag.htm

The story goes like this:
On the night of October 4, 1967, shortly after 11:00 PM, a UFO some 60 feet in diameter was seen to hover over the water near the tiny fishing village of Shag Harbour, Nova Scotia. The UFO, which displayed four bright lights that flashed in sequence, tilted to a 45-degree angle and descended rapidly towards the water's surface. Upon impact, there was a bright flash and an explosive roar. Concerned witnesses began calling the nearby Barrington Passage RCMP detachment. None of those witnesses mentioned anything about a UFO. Most believed that a large aircraft had ditched into the harbour and that there might be survivors.

Eventually, three RCMP officers arrived at the shore near the impact site. Corporal V. Werbicki and Constable Ron O'Brien, dispatched from the Barrington Passage Detachment, were approaching from east of the site. Constable Ron Pond, who was on highway patrol on Highway #3, was heading towards Shag Harbour from a position west of the impact site, and his position allowed him to view the UFO while it was still in flight. The unusual lighting configuration and flight characteristics tipped Cst. Pond off to the unusual nature of the object long before he heard from Cpl. Werbicki, who received his information through the initial complaints to the detachment.

When all three officers met at the impact site they found that the UFO was still floating on the water about a half-mile from shore. It was glowing a pale yellow and was leaving a trail of dense yellow foam as it drifted in the ebb tide. Neither the Rescue Co-ordination Centre in Halifax nor the nearby NORAD radar facility at Baccaro, Nova Scotia, had any knowledge of missing aircraft, either civilian or military. Cst. Pond reported that the object had "changed" during its descent to the water's surface, i.e., it changed shape, and that it appeared to be "no known object." Later, other local witnesses described much the same details as those of Cst. Pond. Also, a coast guard lifeboat from nearby Clark's Harbour and several local fishing boats were summoned to investigate, but the UFO had submerged before they reached the site. The sulfurous-smelling yellow foam continued to well to the surface from the point where the UFO went down, and a 120 by 300 foot slick developed. Search efforts continued until 3:00 AM and then resumed at first light the next day. Everybody involved was convinced that "something" -- that is, something real and unidentified -- had gone into the water.

The next morning a preliminary report was sent to Canadian Forces Headquarters in Ottawa. After communicating with NORAD, Maritime Command was asked to conduct an underwater search ASAP for the object responsible for the concern in Shag Harbour. Seven navy divers from the HMCS Granby searched throughout the daylight hours until sundown of 08 October 1967. On Monday, 09 October 1967, Maritime Command canceled the search effort claiming "nil results." Outside of the local area, media attention quickly faded.

Is this the same guy that wrote this:

So, you want to be a “Ghost Hunter”?
by Lt. Col. James L. Choron

So, you are new at this. Well, everybody starts somewhere. You want answers? You’re looking for an “expert” to teach you how to “hunt ghosts”? Well, I have some very bad news for you. In the field of Paranormal Investigation (We’re much more than “Ghost Hunters”), there simply is no such thing as an expert. True, there are people who have been involved in the field for a long time, and all of them have techniques that they use, because they have found them to be effective, still, we are all learning. Paranormal Investigation is nothing like what you have seen on television, or in the movies. It is a learning process. While we all hope for the day in which it will be an exact science, and accepted as such, that day is not yet, and is most likely a long way off. At the moment, we are still faced with the “Art of the Possible”. It is people like you, who are just now entering the field… who will take the knowledge and experience of those who have gone before you, and help to transform our pursuit into what it should become, a science. Perhaps this will not come in any of our lifetimes, but it will come, and each of us will make some small contribution to that coming (...goes on...)

it was not only captured on videotape by an RTR newscrew, but was instantly aired, not only on RTR, but on all major Russian Network television, via a live feed from the RTR crew, in Kaliningrad.

No one watching had a Snappy hooked up?

The light gray colord craft

Hmmm ... same color as duct tape ...

Here's something that vaguely fits the description:

X-47A Pegasus experimental UAV

Operational Concept For Unmanned Combat Air Vehicle Unveiled

[green team 1999]

burned out alien body!
is this how the crew looks like?

[green team 1999]

how many roswells incidents since 1947,have been covered by the us govnmt?

[_Jim]

According to a Russian Naval Commander ... the craft was apparently caught, accidently, withing (?) the sweep patterns of ship mounted search radars, which came on to track it’s progress, causing some sort of malfunction which resulted in the crash.

Doubtful, comrade, HIGHLY doubtful.

Also - which 'type' of RADAR was active: a 'tracking RADAR' or a 'search RADAR'? There *two* operate, 'sweep' (literally: sweep the skies) and 'view targets' entirely differently ...

[green team 1999]

they were playing with radars at roswell too

[green team 1999]

that X-47 looks scary,all dark.

[_Jim]

Do you think all RADARS are created equal, operate at the same frequency, use the PRF (Pulse Repitition Frequency) and have the same PW (Pulse Width) and have the same peak power?
