COULD this footage be proof that aliens are among us?

The startling film has been leaked on the internet and UFO watchers reckon it could be proof of a government cover-up.

The mystery craft looks far from threatening as it flanks the supersonic F18 fighter above the skies of the US. oof that aliens are among us?

Look more like a new UAV to me...probably being tested and monitored by the F-18.

I think it’s really cool that UFO’s are now using jet engines that leave contrails - they’re copying us instead of us copying them!

I didn’t think a UFO would have a contrail.

It is an air-breather. By the shape of the exhaust plume, it is a stealth UAV, IMHO.

Most likely a X-42B being escorted by a F-18D

Isn’t the F-18 a swingwing design? If so, its flying fairly slow since the wings are in the forward position. I’m no aviation nut, so somebody chime in.

In the absense of any other info my guess is that the F-18 is tracking a drone or something like it—given its size.

Don’t get me wrong, I’d love it if some fine fellows from outer space landed and said hello. But I don’t think this is it.

Agreed. A new UAV in test flight.

Now...had it stopped stone cold in the air and made a radical 90 degree turn on a dime at that speed, with the F-18 flying out of the picture and turning wildly to try and get back on its wing...then I may have started thinking differently.

Cool drones are so common now that even video is not proof of Alien craft anymore.

So an F18 escorts the shuttle coming in just above the escort?
