Swarms of UFOs spotted over military bases, ‘motherships’ also reported, ex-Pentagon official says

former government officials shared details about mysterious incidents near military facilities, the Pentagon reportedly remained stumped about UFO “mother ships.”

Increased transparency has done little to resolve the questions of the curious seeking answers about observed unidentified flying objects, also referred to as unidentified aerial phenomenon (UAP). Now, as 50 pages of U.S. Air Force records have been released regarding incursions, a former senior security official for the Pentagon Chris Mellon is speaking up about craft seen “releasing swarms of smaller craft” near U.S. military bases.

Speaking with the Daily Mail, the former Deputy Assistant Secretary of Defense for Intelligence under Presidents Bill Clinton and George W. Bush addressed such “mother ships” witnessed near the Pentagon as well as near a Lockheed Martin facility in California.

“For at least 17 nights last December, swarms of noisy, small UFOs were seen at dusk ‘moving at rapid speeds’ and displaying ‘flashing red, green, and white lights’ penetrating the highly restricted airspace above Langley Air Force Base in Virginia,” reported the Mail.

Mellon explained a “similar series of intrusions has also occurred over Palmdale, CA” where Lockheed Martin’s “Skunk Works” made the F-22 Raptors.

Offering his own account, retired U.S. Air Force Gen. Mark Kelly spoke with The Wall Street Journal about what he referred to as “Close Encounters at Langley.”

“Sounds like a swarm of common drones, probably the military testing the military”

Common drones? Then why did they appear and disappear seemingly at will, apparently materializing out of nothing, and the military was unable to pin down a launch or recovery point (other than the “mother ship” which was similarly ephemeral) using every spotting technology available?

Thanks for the info. I think the existence of two Langley’s had confused me in the past.

Yeah—agreed. That caught my attention as well.

UFOs have traditionally been silent—and we are talking many thousands of sightings for centuries.

I don’t know what is going on with these.

They also do not zig and zag in weird directions like traditional UFOs.

They're flying at night. If they're equipped with lights and the lights are turned off the drones will appear to "disappear". If they're moving while the lights are off and the light is turned back on they will appear to "re-materialize".

Do you really not understand this?

Do you not understand that IR sensing and radar are minimally affected by sources of visual light? You think all the military has is binoculars?

Are you saying these drones don't show up or do show up on radar and infrared sensors? Is this a "ufologist" narrative?

"You think all the military has is binoculars?"

As I said on a previous post here, millions of people have smartphones with high-definition cameras. It's curious to me that this low-grade video (it's always low-grade video and blurry photos) is the only video we have. How many people work on this base? Did none of the people on the base not look up and record it? Are they all "scared to speak out because of government retribution"?

Every alleged ufo sighting is the same tired narrative.
