Pentagon confirms video of six UFOs buzzing warships in 2019 IS real and says it has no idea what they were
UK Daily Mail ^ | April 13, 2021 | Valerie Edwards

The Pentagon has confirmed that a set of images and videos showing unidentified flying objects buzzing over Navy warships off the coast of California in 2019 'were taken' by branch personnel.

The photos were leaked from a Pentagon investigation of UFOs by the UAP Task Force, which has been gathering evidence for a report for Congress that's due in June, according to Mystery Wire.

The images, which were obtained by filmmaker Jeremy Corbell, show unidentified objects flying above four US destroyers, including the USS Kidd Navy destroyer, in 2019.

I wonder if they are using this because time maybe short before the rapture. They will say aliens took the people. I get called a nut for saying that sometimes. But GOD made the whole universe so maybe he also created other beings.

Suggesting they are “demonic” is like believing in dragons.

Is believing in dragons something like believing in the Old Man in the Sky (aka God)?

It was the CIA’s drones or whatever else the CIA has that buzzed them, etc.

It is the CIA’s. The CIA has lots of technology/weapons/etc. that the US military does not have/does not even know about.

I came to this conclusion by reading the Bible, watching videos, reading different sources, and thinking about what I read and saw.

They’ll be used as a reason we must all come together as a planet under a one world government

Interesting.. personally I don’t believe this planet is the only one in the universe that has or supports life. I believe there are other worlds that are probably far superior to our race and capabilities which in all honesty wouldn’t take much. Looking at the news on a daily basis we’re definitely an inferior species.

Guess time will tell if they’re from here, extra-terrestrial or other.

For people who are saying that it must be the Russians, or the Chinese or even us, a quick primer on current drone technology is probably helpful.

Drones that can loiter on-site for roughly an hour, controlled either by GPS, line-of-sight RF or even inertial navigation systems have been used in off-shore oil & gas exploration for about a decade now. These are (mostly) turbine-powered mini-copters that can be outfitted with sophisticated camera equipment that’s used to survey oil rigs. It doesn’t take a big leap of faith to imagine that we’ve developed somewhat smaller drones that can loiter for perhaps as long as 2-hours.

However, rotor-powered aircraft - like these maritime drones - are incredibly easy to identify using FLIR or 3GEN NVG because the rotor-tips light-up like Christmas trees particularly out to sea when static electricity is very prevalent. Anyone who’s been on deck using NVGs during helo-ops understands what I’m saying. The optical signature is very pronounced. Using infrared systems - which the Burke-class all carry - turbine exhaust is also very pronounced. None of the videos show anything remotely resembling the optical signature of a rotor-powered craft out to sea.

More problematically, to operate these kinds of drones - which are roughly the size of a biggish golf cart, or larger - in off-shore conditions from the deck of a vessel, a considerable amount of deck-space is required, much like the kind of space a helo needs to operate from. For a variety of reasons, you could not launch this kind of drone from a submarine. And even if you could, because of the sail, submarines on the surface are VERY easy for an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer to detect.

So, it was too far from land to have been launched from shore. And, it would have required a reasonably good-sized ship to launch from sea. Any ship big enough to launch and recover these drones would have been EASILY identified by a US navy vessel whose primary mission is to identify other ships at sea.

If they didn’t come from the sea and they didn’t come from the land, where did they come from? And, why were there no rotor signatures in any of the videos?

Why would the CIA or any other branch of the military or foreign government expose its "secret technology/weapons" to an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer (USS Kidd) bristling with the latest technology (Aegis Combat System plus updates and upgrades which are themselves secret)?

I am not saying that I know what was buzzing our ships but it is highly unlikely if not impossible they were being "trolled" by the CIA, Air Force, or China/Russia.

I don’t know about the rapture but I fail to see how the existence of intelligent life not from earth is incompatible with Christianity, if God created the universe why not create life everywhere and those who turn away from God are punished, whose to say in 5000 years assuming Earth is still around we haven’t developed technology which allows humans to travel throughout the galaxy

USAF terrorizing lowly swabbies

Most likely that is the case. The USAF has some very top secret aircraft that only a few even in the Air Force know about. They certainly don't share it with the other branches. Think about the retirement of the SR-71, the fastest non-space plane ever built. Why was it retired? Because we have faster planes out there that are still classified.

No doubt we are very advanced on drone technology by now. I have a brother who flies drones as a hobby and even with off the shelf drones, he can get himself in real trouble with the FAA if he did not fly them responsibly. He takes high-res photos from well over 1,000 feet up. Imagine what the military can do with this kind of stuff.

Anyway, think about it. Why would aliens bother with military ships when there is so much more on Earth to explore. When I was abducted (for lack of a better term) a few years back, they had no interest in our military capabilities (it was to them like we view cavemen with slingshots). They were much more interested in human behavior (hence the abductions).

For instance, they were fascinated by how humans were so interested in fiction. Like novels, movies, TV shows etc. To them, it seems superfluous and trivial to waste time on things that were made up. They are all about facts and data.

They (the other branches) do now.;-)

Seriously, though, the secrecy aspect is the very reason these "drones" were not from another branch of the military...or a foreign military for that matter.

Secrecy is one of the most important features of advanced weapon systems. Exposing new technology to a ship built around the Aegis Combat System would be a very bad idea.

I was in grammar school when the Roswell incident first hit the headlines.

"Wow! They've got a flying saucer!" I said. Everybody in school had the same reaction.

A day or so later they announced that it was a weather balloon. Everybody in the class laughed! Nobody believed it.

"You mean the government can't tell the difference between a flying saucer and a weather balloon!" was the general reaction.

My grandchildren today have the same reaction to the woke indoctrination in their schools and everywhere else.

My grandson (7th grade) said that when the teacher droned on and on and on about global warming he and the other children agreed: "Yes ma'am. Yes ma'am. Yes ma'am." Then as soon as class was over they all burst into laughter and said such things as: "What a douchbag!"

My granddaughter (8th grade) said: "I feel like they're all trying to make me think something that's not true."

Children are a lot smarter than the baizuos who teach them--and a lot smarter than the baizuos realise!
