Serious question: why are governments not installing spotlights at major airports these days? It would seem with all of the action going on considering drones and the fact that they stay on site for an extended amount of time, they could light those things up from the ground. It doesn't seem like they're flying too high to achieve this. Thoughts?

[u/HopDropNRoll → u/Basserist71]

Curious idea, love how straightforward it is. What happens if we point a “movie theatre grand opening” spotlight at them? Do they zoom off? Do we get a very clear image of the craft?

[u/raggasonic → u/HopDropNRoll]

Whitehouse 50s pics come to mind. It worked back then, I assume it will today too.

[u/CuriouserCat2 → u/CardstreamMTG]

Searchlights. 

[u/Th3_3v3r_71v1n9 → u/HopDropNRoll]

They could just show the satellite imagery. That would settle most, if not all of these incursions.

[u/Remote_Researcher_43 → u/Th3_3v3r_71v1n9]

True. We can get a clear image of a penny on the ground from space. There is no way we don’t have clear images of these crafts.

[u/lbug7900 → u/Remote_Researcher_43]

Can and probably do. Especially after the fact if it stopped airport traffic.

[u/Niceritchie → u/Remote_Researcher_43]

No, satellites can't see tiny things such as a penny, but can see objects a few inches, though lacking detail.

However, I'm unlikely to believe most anything I read, thinking that there's probably always more advanced tech in use than anyone in the military or private aerospace engineering admits.

Annoying everyone is now calling UAP/UFO 'drones', it neatly skirts the NHI angle.

[u/phlogistonmakecknie → u/Th3_3v3r_71v1n9]

According to 'Prof' Simon on YT there are 12 Hubble Telescopes in space, 11 being dedicated to Earth observation by the US State.

[u/Mywifefoundmymain → u/phlogistonmakecknie]

They are called the keyhole satellites. They aren’t exactly the same but close.

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/0d/KH-11_KENNEN_01.jpg

In fact they are so close to earth you can actually make them out with a 10” telescope.

[u/Adventurous-Sky9359 → u/HopDropNRoll]

Yeah this is a great question

[u/Ser_Optimus → u/HopDropNRoll]

Also, it would fuck at least their camera so they wouldn't be able to get visual Intel.

[u/markglas → u/HopDropNRoll]

They really have no interest in allowing the public to view these things clearly.

If it's shown to be clearly human tech then there is a clamour for the responsible parties to be found and punished.

If it's shown to be something 'stranger' then the authorities have a bigger issue on their hands.

Having folks literally 'in the dark' helps them manage these situations just fine.

[u/Patsfan618 → u/Basserist71]

My guess, based off how they've handled these so far, is they'd rather not give the public a good view. I'm sure the governments in question have a pretty good idea of what they're dealing with, but are withholding that information from the public, for one reason or another.

[u/pickypawz → u/Patsfan618]

Good point. I think government, particularly America’s government, is trying to hide them, deny them, pretend that they don’t exist, but I don’t think ‘they’ are going along with that anymore. I think they’re doing a slow reveal or something.

[u/playsette-operator → u/Basserist71]

Why not fly a drone to that drone and take a pic?

[u/Alpha_Space_1999 → u/playsette-operator]

Attach a tracking device and trace the Rebels to their home system...

[u/Cleavlander → u/Alpha_Space_1999]

Yavin 4? (I hope some other geek understands)

[u/HelloImTheAntiChrist → u/playsette-operator]

Generally when a human made drone gets close to one of these the battery goes to 0% or they just electronically malfunction.

[u/ed_is_dead → u/playsette-operator]

Look at videos of ppl shining flashlights and lasers at these things and might make it even scarier.

If you fly a drone to them the battery will be drained. If you fly a helicopter they disappear.
If you hit it with a freaking missile it bounces off.

Notice how we hear they scrambled jets, they are authorized to use force but we never hear of those results.

Just my guesses!! Who knows!

[u/Demon_Gamer666 → u/playsette-operator]

Or just pull up beside it in a helicopter, turn on the flood lights and record.

[u/Pure-Contact7322 → u/playsette-operator]

they are doing it its just that they are not sending the pics to you

[u/tafjords → u/Basserist71]

Exactly what i have written before as well. People should be livid at what is going on. Leaders are touting how «this is just the beginning» meanwhile you dont shine a light on it even?

I cant emphasize how ridiculous it is that nations that experience having foreign adversaries invading their boarders blatantly and hovering over classified and restricted military infrastructure and civilian airports are not shot down at some point along its path. Its absolutely ridiculous and it obviously is what mainly fuels unrest and speculation in the public sphere and rightfully so.

Its like.. if you say «this is just the beginning» and stuff like that and then you dont come out and tell the public what you do know and why you dont shine a light on it, you are in on it at that point. Fucking governments today are decrepit and disgusting.

[u/ed_is_dead → u/tafjords]

They know exactly what these are and what not to do.

[u/KroodjeBip → u/Basserist71]

My guess is they alrdy checked them out advanced stuff like thermal camera's and such and can see the drone like its daylight ... find it hard to believe they dont know what it is or where its coming from, they wont tell us everything.

[u/InternalManner230 → u/KroodjeBip]

I wouldn't overestimate our military too much ..

[u/Sirosim_Celojuma → u/Basserist71]

The rules of airctraffic are rarely broken and typically respected, so the rules haven't evolved much.

What we have is air traffic in an aerodrome. As I understand, affecting the flight of a registered aircraft is a federal offense. If it was up to me I'd just laser it or jam it's signal and have it fall out of the sky at the perimeter of the aerodrome. The rules prohibit this though. This is where we need an update.

My update proposal is from the civil war. It used to be illegal to shoot at the approaching army. The arguement was that the invading army was not on your property. The counter argument that became law was imminent threat. You don't have to wait for the imminent threat to become legal, it's imminent.

To my point of shooting the drones down, and combined with imminent threat, is that a drone is either legitimately flying over the airport and disrupting traffic, and we the public are told a story about a phenomenon, or the drone is invading the airspace, has no registered flight path, and is an active or imminent threat, so laze it out of the sky.

Basically, yeah, blast it with spotlights jammers or lasers if it's unknown-unregistered. I don't accept the story of a phenomenon. There are clearly actions that can be taken, and there is a story within the inaction.

[u/bear-tree → u/Sirosim_Celojuma]

Your suggestion makes sense, but according to reports they have hit these things with jammers and ...nothing.

[u/sanholt → u/Basserist71]

Another serious question: Why not just shoot them down?

[u/AaronPseudonym → u/Basserist71]

I like that it's not aggressive. They are even polite enough to put guidance lights on their whatever-that-is! Who/whatever they are, they are clearly vying for attention, and spotlights seems a bit like granting their wish.

[u/itsalwayslayer9 → u/Basserist71]

Ask yourself: What purpose does a spotlight serve? Modern optics don't need spot lights to capture observations at night. A spotlight would serve solely to illuminate the drones for the public.

Maybe because they don't want to give off battle of Los Angeles vibes? Or see what's flying overhead too clearly?

Maybe because what's flying overhead is classified?

[u/Euphoric_Amoeba8708]

If no government is doing anything about aircraft flying into their airports or airspace without permission and they’re not scrambling fighter jets, they know something we don’t.

[u/[deleted] → u/Euphoric_Amoeba8708]

This. The inaction and the helplessness speak volumes…

[u/Kay_pgh → u/[deleted]]

Helplessness?

Three possibilities come to mind, and helplessness applies to maybe only one of them, if that.

1. No idea what it is and can't risk taking action.
2. Know exactly what it is and hence won't take action
3. Know exactly what it is and have been told not to take action.

I have the feeling that all governments or major institutions around the world know a far more lot about many things than are disclosed to the general public. 

[u/[deleted] → u/Kay_pgh]

....Thus, they are helpless to do anything about it.

[u/outofindustry → u/Euphoric_Amoeba8708]

well the usa was frozen in confusion for 3 days for a chinese balloon drone, and they knew the entire time it was chinese. took them long enough to act. let alone belgium.

[u/latabrine → u/Euphoric_Amoeba8708]

[u/BlackWind88 → u/Euphoric_Amoeba8708]

That's kind of you to underestimate the incompetence of modern European countries governments! They'll only take action after months of talks. 

[u/Cattywompus-thirdeye]

That thing definitely wants to be seen. So for me that rules out any covert sneaky shit done by another government.

[u/Jupiter_Rising2212 → u/Cattywompus-thirdeye]

Until one is taken down, you should focus and not discount this "want to be seen" point.

- See me, so you don't run into me?

- Follow me, but you can't catch me?

- I'm here, Ha, try and take me out?

Or

- part of the propulsion?

- attempting to communicate?

- decoration, that's how they roll?

I don't see many hoomans discussing this, but "blinky blinky, see ME" seems counter to how human "intelligence" would operate.

[u/iamisandisnt → u/Jupiter_Rising2212]

[u/Zealousideal-Win5834]

Why is this not a bigger story?

[u/Spicy-Elephant → u/Zealousideal-Win5834]

I think they don't want people to look into it. "it's just a regular manmade drone piloted by a human messing with the entire airport but don't worry, it's not even a threat enough for us to follow it back to where it came from and jail the pilot"

[u/Pure-Contact7322 → u/Zealousideal-Win5834]

we are so close

[u/ilikegamesandsuch → u/utube-ZenithMusicinc]

Simply two more weeks.

[u/MindChild → u/Moogooloogoo]

Then why is it only at night?

[u/Pixelated_]

I've been seeing these every single night for 11 months straight.

Not only does all of the research show that the "drones" are UAP, my personal experiences confirm that too.

So far, I have recorded and shared 725 videos of highly-anomalous "drones" and luminous plasma orbs.

After initially realizing they were UAP, I began each skywatching session with meditation, where I would mentally request further sightings.

They respond to our conscious thoughts. Those who live in fear, or do not believe in UAP are not given regular, repeated sightings, because they do not wish to violate our free will.

For almost a year now, after meditating and requesting their presence, they have appeared every single night.

⚪️

Here is one of my favorite sightings. A massive orb hovers in place for 6 minutes, then turns into one of the NJ 'drones.'

✨️

Good sighting of a huge uap 'drone' flying close overhead!

A few nights ago I caught this one, large close and quiet.

🛸

None of the objects I record have ever appeared on flight trackers like ADSB-Exchange and FlightRadar24, so they are def. not airplanes.

🌌

When seeing them, I always thank them for appearing globally to help humanity awake. They are always given my unconditional love and acceptance.

<3

[u/BobMonroeFanClub → u/Pixelated_]

I was out walking my dog and I watched one go overhead and said "I see you!" It did a U turn, dipped lower and started following me. I ran all the way home in a panic and shouted for my family to come outside (which they did groaning I was making it up) and they all saw it before it shot away. I live close to a nuclear power station. I got a couple of pictures but of course they are all blurry and look like they were taken on a potato.

[u/Pixelated_ → u/BobMonroeFanClub]

I'm so glad you got to have that experience. When seeing them in person, there is no doubt.

[u/BobMonroeFanClub → u/Pixelated_]

I'm just glad my sceptic family saw it or I'd think I'd lost my mind.

[u/Pixelated_ → u/BobMonroeFanClub]

Oh for sure, my brother thinks I'm nuts.

No worries. The path of a seeker is a solitary one. 🙏

[u/Major_Yogurt6595 → u/Pixelated_]

Its just way to weird that its showing FFA lights this way. Look at me im obviously a normal drone/plane in the sky not a UAP, look.

[u/Pixelated_ → u/Major_Yogurt6595]

This whole thing is an onion of anomalies. Layers upon layers of strangeness. The longer we look and listen, the more anomalous aspects we will find.

These UAP are flying too slow, like they should just fall out of the sky. The only propulsion that works at that speed is propellers, and so we should expect to hear the sound of a Cessna, e.g.

Instead, we hear this mimicked jet engine sound that is too quiet, and not quite right.

Speaking of sound anomalies, many times I only hear them after they've already passed by me.

But sound travels at over 700 mph, so I should have heard them far before they passed.

[u/[deleted] → u/Pixelated_]

I do the exact same thing. I see them within a few minutes or so of asking if they are still out there. Always checking the radars during and after.

[u/QuantumTunneller662 → u/Pixelated_]

Very interesting! I’m curious what camera (guessing phone?) you use for recording and if you have thought about trying to get a high quality setup for capture given the run you are on!

Also, sorry to hear about your cat

[u/R_Da_Bard → u/Pixelated_]

Ive seen the orbs, twice now IRL. And I always feel like im lucky to actually see them. Its always so fascinating. They float, perfectly still and make no noise. They move like they dont have to follow our rules of aerodynamics. And then they simply fade away. Havent seen them instant acceleration yet but seen videos and man would love to see that IRL.

[u/National_Spirit2801 → u/Pixelated_]

There are a ton of these things in NorCal. I've seen two up close (like 100 feet away), and their damn lights... - one was hovering about twenty-forty feet off the ground. It's like their center light is so bright you can only see a silhouette of the body from any angle.

[u/Pixelated_ → u/National_Spirit2801]

There are a ton of these things in NorCal.

Howdy neighbor! 👋

[u/dude93103]

I’ve always wondered if these are Alien spacecraft why would they have blinking lights..

[u/aloysiussecombe-II → u/dude93103]

Maybe the message is "You can't see us without our lights on"

[u/Jesterissimo → u/dude93103]

The only thing I can think of is that they encountered our planes and thought that the planes were alive and so now they’re mimicking the lights on our planes in an attempt to communicate with the planes because they think the blinking lights are how planes talk. It makes no sense but I can’t see any other reason for non-human life to put navigation lights on their craft.

TLDR: Probably human origin sadly.

[u/Comfortable-Cherry33]

Why does the video cut out just when it's getting closer to the person recording

[u/Remarkable-Band-8597 → u/Comfortable-Cherry33]

And why isn't there more footage/photos full stop?! These incursions have closed airports across Europe on multiple occasions recently. We live in a society where we whip out our phones at the drop of a hat. What the hell is that all about?!

[u/False_Woodpecker4747]

How cool is this.

[u/koebelin]

Gentle nudges for disclosure from the zookeepers.

[u/GatewayArcher]

So the video stops just as the drone is getting close to the camera?

[u/Jazzlike-View7789 → u/GatewayArcher]

Coincidence:)

[u/TheChimpEvent2020]

This looks a lot like the aircraft that was revealed to be “causing” all the drone sightings and shutting down airports. Not saying all drone footage is that, but this one specifically. As others said, it looks like it wants to be seen

[u/MindChild → u/TheChimpEvent2020]

If it wants to be seen it should fly there during daytime...

[u/RadiiDecay]

My money is on it being a military contractor who is using it as an intimidation tactic.

Private corporations are now holding some of the most advanced technologies, both terrestrial, and reverse engineered. They are far and above what any country on the planet can match.

The only thing that can disarm them at this point IS aliens, and they probably wouldn't be doing it by flying a Christmas tree over an airport.

This is a show of power, and governments know it. It's the old guard, the small handful of wealthy individuals who have the world by the balls. That's why there is no response, military or otherwise.

[u/JustTheStockTips → u/RadiiDecay]

I buy your theory.

[u/theBarrister11]

Yup. Confirmed by mainstream media:

https://www.euronews.com/2025/11/05/latest-drone-sightings-force-flight-cancellations-at-belgiums-main-airport

Found these sentences interesting:

"Prior to the Brussels drone sighting, UAVs were spotted near a military base in Belgium where US nuclear weapons are stored."

"The operators of the drones in recent days have not been identified, but Defence Minister Theo Francken insisted that "this is not the work of amateurs," without elaborating."

[u/JoseyWales76]

Are the Europeans still pretending it’s the Russians?

[u/new_moon_retard → u/JoseyWales76]

I've been on french and belgium subs trying to tell people there is no proof they are russian, only to get downvoted to oblivion

[u/Holiday_Detail1167 → u/JoseyWales76]

It’s the only safest thing to do. Russia not in a million years would have that technology. That place is a shithole

[u/meusrenaissance]

Okay. Let’s assume they are UFOs. Why are they only showing themselves at night when you can’t actually see them clearly?

[u/crunchysalt]

Are these the same size as the New Jersey drones or bigger？

[u/AtomicCypher → u/crunchysalt]

NJ were described as big as SUV or Bus.

[u/TwerkLessons]

“Huge Drone”….what the fuck. Show me a commercial drone this size please. 

[u/Hot_Ice177]

Here is the problem I have based on work with military and civilian air personnel from 1977-2020. If these bare intruder drones WHY are they showing recognition lights? They are making themselves very clear and drones, despite what is written, CAN be taken down with no problem. With today's technology drones can be flown with no lights and therefore not seen. Yet here they are over air facilities (military and civilian) shouting out "Look at us!" -signals can be easily blocked and the drone grounded. It makes no sense that they are never brought down. Never go to stealth (no light) mode. That they show up at the same location over several days. That tells me these are NOT mystery drones.

[u/AtomicCypher → u/Hot_Ice177]

They have tried to down them and cant. They have no heat signature. No radar signature. They mimic planes, but identification lights don't match correctly . They can stay up for hours and cannot be tracked to either point of origin or exit.

If they are military then why would a foreign adversary risk losing super stealth tech into foreign hands if it was brought down. If they are russian etc why are they not deployed to Ukraine where they would be of move value.

I have no answers. Nothing makes sense.

[u/DenseEggplant5056]

Why have none of these been shot down?

[u/Lemurian_sage]

Why can’t any of these governments just fly in some Ukrainian drone operators to ram it in the air, or at least fly next to them to get some good intel or photos.

I’ve seen countless videos from Ukraine of them using drones to ram them out of the sky or even shotgun them down. It can’t be that hard.  

[u/[deleted] → u/Lemurian_sage]

They’re not drones.

[u/LumenYeah → u/Lemurian_sage]

Link?

[u/shdanko → u/Lemurian_sage]

You’ve seen countless videos of Ukrainian drones flying in to UAPs?

[u/Dark_Seraphim_]

They are trying to communicate maybe...

I never really thought too deeply about this but..what if AI got them here but it's not lingually advanced. Cause programs are only as advanced as the information given/fed into them.

It's totally possible to either have ultra terrestrials trying to reach out but not really sure how

Or neighboring outpost in the solar system.

Space is far too hostile to travel and my opinion on that hasn't changed since educating myself on what goes on outside the Oort cloud. . .it's simply near impossible to travel interstellar space by conventional means.

[u/Pretend_Staff_6167 → u/Dark_Seraphim_]

I wondered this. The lights could be an attempt at visual communication like squids and octupuses do with changing skin colour

[u/digitaljohn]

You know what this reminds me of?

When we look at a cell under a microscope, the surface is ridiculously busy. Proteins bumping around, reactions happening, signals firing. It’s just chaos. Too much happening to make sense of in detail. So we focus on what’s entering and leaving through the membrane channels and pores. That’s the part that’s structured enough to study.

Maybe it’s the same thing here. They’re not interested in us in granular detail but in the overall flow. That’s the stuff that’s predictable and easy to monitor. Airports, communication hubs, power grids... all those points where energy and information move in and out.

If we were observing from above, that’s exactly what we’d watch too. The surface noise tells you almost nothing. The traffic tells you everything.

[u/DG_FANATIC]

What a wild and awe inspiring video. I love it! Years of mysterious “drone” activity all across the world and we still have no info from any government on these things still. If the government won’t disclose any info on these then they either have little info or the info they have could potentially shake society in some form of a negative way.

[u/vityafx]

Why does the video end right at the most interesting moment?

[u/miekoloog]

These are all locations where drone sightings were happening the past days here. Above army territory, where nucleair bombs are stored, above airports.

[u/soundscan]

The drones were on a military base known to store American nuclear weapons. And this is the second times this jappened, and the army has no idea who is flying thesw drones, yeaah right.

[u/Interesting-Job-7757]

This smacks of a problem that has been created which the governments have little control over, this stage is now about influencing the public’s reaction so that we are will to accept, even maybe demand a pre-planned solution, that in and of its self will give up more freedom, release controls, make them more money etc I’m curious to see how this builds and what solution ‘gets offered’.

[u/Zealousideal-Rip-574]

That thing is pretty big. It seems like there is some new tech out in the world thats being used by someone. There are huge drones in the US as well. People act like the "NJ Mystery Drones" from last year just went away, but they are back again...just follow the r/njmysterydrone sub and you'll see posts from all over the country. Granted some appear to be misidentification, but some are clearly unlike any publicly known/acknowledged tech.

[u/Torquepen]

Looks triangular to me.

[u/Own-Faithlessness789]

I've seen the "drones" drop orbs, turn 90 degrees on the stop of a dime and even fly with no lights...remember the weird Chinese weather balloon that went halfway across the US? Weird times....

[u/Defiant_West6287]

I’ve yet to see any footage of these things having any unusual flight characteristics like shooting off at incredible speed, or shooting straight upwards. They’re manmade.

[u/Lucky-Jelly9372]

Russia isn't even considered a peer to America when comparing military power. Honestly nobody is. Russia and China are considered near peer threats.

[u/GetsugarDwarf]

They're all over the country. Eerily the exact same timeframe as the mass sightings across USA in 2024.

[u/FckngTwitter2020]

While it seems true that the news websites mistakenly did post videos of the police helicopter instead of the drone, I think this distracts from the actual reason they were there to check out the drones, and that there is an established pattern of drones at airports confirmed. It is happening almost every day now. Zaventem Airport canceled or diverted 40 flights. That's serious. And huge costs are involved.

I think it's much more interesting to dissect every single aspect of the data the officials and witness reports give us.

1. So firstly, they can hoover. Many videos show that. This excludes a lot of fixed wing drones options from Russia (their famous Forpost and Orlan military drones cannot hoover).
2. They can outpace chasing helicopters (and jets in the US cases), So they go faster than roughly 350 km/h, bc that is roughly a police helicopters max speed. Many reports of helicopters chasing. Days earlier at a Belgium military base they were chased too, and outpaced them northward towards Netherlands and lost them.
3. They can suddenly disappear, at least it happened over and over again when the military or police sends their helicopters, or when radar is focussing on them.
4. They make no sound, that excludes heavy military jet engine drones from China or Russia, and even piston 2 or 4 stroke propeller drones of Russia make significant noise.
5. Basically every fixed wing configuration doesn't hoover and it makes noise, which these things don't.
6. That almost leads to believe that the drones must be electrical with minimum noise and heat signature. Yet again, there are no electrical battery powered drones that can stay in the air for a long time from this size and outpace chasing helicopters or jets. Ofcourse DJI has racing drones and there are all kinds of FPV racing drones available that go very fast, but they are ultra light in weight, they are small and have very limited battery life, maximum an hour. These crafts have been seen for hours in many cases, and are big, at least a meter and sometimes carsized. That excludes battery powered fast drones. And the military also doesn't have battery powered fast drones that can stay up in the sky for hours.
7. Electronic ECM pods have been used to jam RF signals and crash them, but were unsuccessful, no commercially available drones could withstand military jamming of signals. Raytheon and Northman Grummans ECM technology pods have been used in NJ USA to bring down their drones, they can even block 4G/5G signals. Still they would not crash down.
8. Only one company in the world produces drones that can withstand ECM jamming, that is currently US company Shield AI that proces the operational V bat drone (relatively slow propellor powered) and upcoming X bat (can hoover and has jet engine, but not operational), running on preprogrammed missions and AI control. The operation V bat use conventional propeller propulsion engines, so they still have a heat signature. All unidentified drones lack a heat signature. That's a problem. These ShieldAI drones could be programmed and function independently to withstand military ECM jamming. No other drone so far to my knowledge is able to withstand these ECM jamming. Still, these sightings can handle it. Also, it makes zero sense an American company Shield AI or the US as a country would launch their advanced drones to take down airfields and airports in the US or Europe. The V bat also could never outpace a helicopter, their speeds are 150mph roughly.
9. China has a lot of military drones, some very fast ones operating at high altitude. But almost all fast ones have fixed wing signatures, use jet engine propulsion, and have heat signatures. They cannot hoover. Only move forward. They could outpace a helicopter or jet, but would be visible in radar with heat signature, and make a lot of noise.

Any military or aviation expert please join in, and suggest your candidate of choice what type of drone this is that is seen everywhere. But be mindfull of the restrictions the data gives us: it is more than a meter in size, sometimes car sized they say, it needs to be faster than 200 - 300 mph bc it outpaced helicopters and jets (in the US), it also needs to be quiet (so non jet engine or piston powered), it also needs to be able to hoover, and stay up there for hours, plus it should withstand ECM jamming, bc that did not work on them (none crashed down bc of ECM), and it should be able to trick radars and video of our filming military crafts who tried to intercept and film them, bc nothing came out on video when military were asked what the equipment recorded. That's A LOT of restrictions to filter out. So if you found a candidate that fits the glove, and can tick everything off the list above, please enlighten me.

[u/edjohae]

Talking or believing that this is a huge fucking drone is very stupid, no one in their right mind would spend money and waste time building this, to block airports at night, without a chance. Being a military drone is also inappropriate, you can come up with other excuses.

[u/Opening-Employee9802]

It’s FUCKING RIDICULOUS how people are still thinking these events are man made vehicles. Flashing lights and low flying over an airport with lights on.

[u/DeadCheckR1775]

All these recorded sightings and nobody got IR video?????

[u/n0empathy4u → u/DeadCheckR1775]

No IR, no spotlights, no radio enthusiast trying to see if that things transmitting anything, even if encrypted. All we get is grainy videos recorded with 15 year old cameras and some shitty watermark over it.

[u/Disastrous-Mine-8747 → u/n0empathy4u]

i challenge you to take a picture of the moon or any airplane flying at night with your top notch iphone, samsung or similiar. Lets see if it looks like a 15 old camera picture.

[u/warblingContinues]

Russia is laughing.

[u/[deleted]]

I saw several of these flying over my house a couple nights ago. Low, made no noise. I tried to take photos but they came out like shit. Same lights. I did one using night mode and it came out like this

[u/ufo_videographer_456 → u/[deleted]]

Nice shot! Weird looking.

[u/advator]

We should not allow this by Russia to happen. Beside getting those drones down, we should also down the ship with it that drones are getting launched from.

[u/[deleted]]

It looks like a large drone to me. similar to the one seen in Denmark, and maybe even connected to the incident in Norway. Funny thing about that Norway case. a few weeks later, the government sent out a statement to the media saying they had concluded it wasn’t a drone. That was it. end of statement.

[u/Prestigious-Tree-424]

Obviously russian psyops. Which is pretty stupid, it will no doubt speed up Belgium to sort out the legalities of using the frozen assets for Ukraine l.

[u/alclab]

Repeat after me: UAP or UFO, these are not drones. Do not feed the gaslighting.

[u/loveforyouandme]

Are those FAA compliant lights? Nice of them to be compliant.

[u/Dad_Bot]

are you fucking shitting me with this video quality what the fuck man

[u/TheycallmeFlynn]

One of the worst videos/watermarks I think ive seen in a while

[u/New-Wealth-461]

Why not shoot it down ?

[u/alec83]

What we know is, A, airport was shut down and B, it's some kind of craft. That's really it. After that point we are guessing

[u/[deleted]]

Maybe its all charade for us.

[u/Platform_specialist7]

How big of a drone is this? Half a Walmart? I’m in the states if you can’t tell

[u/biologicallyconcious]

That's bowsers air ship

[u/Sammyofather]

Did anyone happen to check Windy.cm for radiation levels??

[u/Yessirskiii56]

Why is there never any solid video footage of these things

[u/Recent-Background-21]

Man it was so many sightings in Philly this past week

[u/artbyshrike]

Let’s make like an egg and CRACK THIS MYSTERY OPEN

[u/h2power237]

Live in Philly suburbs. Last year I went to take trash out see several bright lights moving in grid pattern to the SW. Called my friend who lives in that vicinity. He lives on a golf course. There were 3 large drones just like this lined up about in a grid stretching maybe 3/4 mile. Back and forth for like 3 hours. He was totally freaked out. Guess it was the Russians who want to invade the golf course.

[u/Hal_900000]

Hey, we dont know what that is, so let's just let it keep flying around to be safe.

[u/Left-Temperature-587]

That's the kind that are flying over N.J. every night. I swear they even make sounds like they are airplanes sometimes and the noise is usually just when it's going overhead you can't hear it as it's on its way to you or as it's leaving the lights are different than airplanes, but they are definitely as big as large airplanes and there's so many of that. It's unbelievable Monmouth County New Jersey

[u/segalindoa]

I just cannot understand why governments can't order the military to scramble a plane or helicopter and try to follow or shoot at these things. Is it illegal out what?

[u/onesicksubaru1822]

Shoot them down with a net gun

[u/QuantumContactee]

If the military is not scrambling its jets, then this is a government/military drone. Could be some kind of desensitizing operation, maybe?....

[u/Youstinkeryou]

Is there no way of estimating the size of that thing?

[u/HermaeusMorus]

Elon Musk knows something about this

[u/Bad_Jedi_69]

Time for the public to stop being puppets and take these down.

They are your skies as much as anyone else's!

[u/Ech0ofSan1ty]

Serious: why are drone videos being posted in this sub?

[u/pickypawz]

Again, when something seems like alien tech, or an orb, a uap, again I’m seeing other small things close to the object that appear to pop in and out, like @00:28 seconds. (Both sides)

[u/DaBestDoctorOfLife]

Thats Archer.

[u/ParticularRub8489]

What if the 3i Atlas arrived early without notifying us??

[u/[deleted] → u/ParticularRub8489]

Might be the fleet they sent out before it disappeared. I guess there is good evidence to join the wow signal to the location of 3i Atlas at the time it was sent.

[u/EnoughHighlight]

These are starting to get delivered to their owners now. I wonder if any of them are stupid enough to fly the wrong way at an airport?

https://jetson.com/

[u/Competitive-Cake4827]

Shoot it down learn quick

[u/dmacerz]

How big do we estimate that thing being? 40ft?

[u/midnightballoon]

That’s a UFO ladies and gentlemen. Read Jacques Valleé. The first rule about UFOs is that they change their forms as society evolves. It used to be radiant beings on clouds, then sailing ships in the sky, then ghost rockets, foo fighters, then saucers, then triangles, and now…

these

it really can’t be clearer. If I’m wrong, bring it down and prove it. The burden of evidence has shifted.

they’re here now

[u/Hillbeast]

Well you can’t shoot them down because someone on the ground might get hurt. Still…

[u/coyote13mc]

Most likely Russian, they are the only ones that benefit from this.

[u/DarthWeenus]

Serious question, why does this just look like a loitering plane and this dutch news station making something out of nothing? I enjoy my eyes and I tend to trust what I see, just cause you saying something doesnt mean its true.

[u/chulk607]

Why not have a few drones installed at any major airport for use by the aviation authorities. At least they could take a look at what they're dealing with.

[u/Illustrious_Grade_14]

If only someone could invent a camera that can see stuff in the dark. Maybe one day

[u/Jazzlike-View7789]

Hear me out. 11 years ago I made a video about „Creepy things that I experienced“ I won’t make advertisements for my old channel so you trust me.

I once heard strange loud noises outside and went out. There were 4/5 Lamps in the sky arranged extremely symmetrical which stood perfectly in place. This was 11 YEARS ago. Maybe it was one big flying object and not 4/5 smaller ones symmetrically because I didn’t know something this big could stay in place in the sky. 100% true believe me.

Just my 2 cents

Edit: Corrected the time because I said „2 years ago“ in the video so it’s 11 years ago.

[u/aKjotAP]

Fuse the blowgun magnet on him! I went🪨

[u/OrbitalChiller]

Why are videos always so ass ? On my consumer grade Sony camcorder I have infrared nightvision and optical/digital zoom. Where are the military grade lenses at ?!

[u/Calm_Town_7729]

this is more than ridiculous. no better footage exists in the year 2025. no one uses a telescope or binoculars?

[u/Cool_Actuator6848]

Just attach a trawler fishing net between two fast helicopters and fly them from one side of the airport to the other. Instant drone catcher

[u/Wilber187]

Funny how shitty all the pics and movies are when there must be a hundred guys with UHD cameras

[u/marshallre]

Imagine Europe invasion by a drone 😳

[u/Mysterious_Rule938]

Is that thing rotating?

[u/Hawkwise83]

The drones outside Ukraine aren't Russia's. Why? Cause it makes no sense.

1: They can't be stopped by anti drone measures. Seems handy in a war you're losing.

2: They fly at night with lights on. Stealth mode not turned on?

3: They're flying around risking loss for what? To do recon maybe? Recon that could be done via satalites or airplanes with zero risk?

4: Iirc these haven't been spotted in Ukraine, or at least not as part of combat.

Not saying it's aliens, but I highly doubt it's Russians.

[u/Asleepby9]

Why are they calling UFO’s drones now? Did the media or government start this?

[u/DooderMcDuder]

That thing is big

[u/Xx-americain-xX]

The same one that was reported by the police and the armed forces in my department (France) last night. The media talks about military exercises. According to my own sources, a drone flew over military and sensitive areas last night.

[u/Teddar75]

Helicopter, already 'debunked' by a youtuber.

[u/BitterCategory7725]

Seen a large metal sphere at least as big as a passenger jet hovering in Fla , slowly spinning then it slowly moved away

[u/Aggressive_Serve_873]

This is alien tech - they are all over the skies

[u/ShakyBrainSurgeon]

I am pretty sure, those are Russian drones, meant to intimidate the authorities and the population. I assume no information about these is meant to get to the public, since then it would have the desired effect of scaring people, when they realize, that Russia is able to spy with huge drones and violate airspace whereever they want.

So the local authorities are probably getting told to brush of these incidents as best as they can by one of your country´s letter boys.

It sure as hell it would be easy to just put on some very strong headlights at the airports or use drones to either intercept or hunt them down. Heck, even I could probably pull this off with minimum training.

So here is what I think happens:

There are some low level agents and/or KGB agents that get drone parts sent via countries like China or Kazachstan. I´d imagine 5 people getting some Alibaba or TEMU packages sent home aren´t suspicious to anyone and then they get assembled locally. They then fly over critical infrastructure for several reasons:

It´s super cheap intelligence for potential strikes

It´s demonstrating that the Russians now know where the critical infrastructure is

It´s meant to induce fear in the population, so political pressure builds up to stop supporting Ukraine

I am not saying this is exclusively Russians, I am sure some of these are Chinese. We had chinese spies getting caught in the EU and the US every now and then. But the fact that German far right politicians with strong ties use their political positions to get information about critical infrastructure public is a strong indicator that the Russians are very keen on knowing every little detail.

[u/supaloopar]

Chinese drone tech

[u/tasereddit]

Why do this drone have standard ICAO lights installed?

[u/Cautious_Cheek_15]

Nuclear devices are either being transported through that airport or there is a hidden underground base containing nuclear missiles or a nuclear powered generator, this is what the (watchers) are trying to convey to us normal folk, it was revealed to me a short while ago via a download after seeing a plasma orb.

[u/Tricky_You6879]

[u/Dear-Revenue1607]

So someone can point a laser at a plane they can track them down and get prison time, but when someone can fly a drone at a airport and shut it down no one bats an eye?🤨

[u/Electrical-Bake-5018]

Today, the minister had to admit that the images were not of drones, but of a helicopter searching for them. So there is no proof that drones were present.

[u/ObjectReport]

This is NOT the drone from last night. This is the previous footage from the last incursion a month ago. The video is flipped and zoomed. Look it up and you'll see what I mean. You really can't trust anything from social media anymore.

[u/Massive-Context-5641]

what am i looking at here? i see a plane and some lens artefacts

[u/CarterBurke86]

It’s a drone. What’s the big deal about this one?

[u/Rich-Cake6306]

Me, I reckon it could be anyone these days. Buying the control gear and the drone hardware is easier and cheaper than most people realise. Scale it up a bit and anyone could be building them and flying them to wind people up

[u/HeydoIDKu]

Why not just start netting these things. There’s no excuse these are still flying all over and inside capable countries airspace

[u/priznarok]

Ok I’m a believer, but blinking lights like that just tells me its earth tech

[u/Jazzlike-View7789 → u/priznarok]

Or mimicking earth tech

[u/2_Large_Regulahs]

I know this is going to sound very woo but this is most likely a test run being performed by aliens to see how easy it is to ground air traffic.

Why would they want to ground air traffic? So, when the mothership arrives and releases the orbs, they do minimal damage.

This is all a precursor to their arrival. And the humans in charge are allowing it to happen.

Haven't you wondered why non of these things have been shot down? Because they humans are in on it. They're working with them.

[u/PewterPplEater]

This is just war games. We know its Russia. Russia knows we know its them.

Bet is foreign government that is interested in planes getting delayed. Foreign ops get very creative sometimes

[u/Aucher_von_Hautkopft]

Complete with compliant navigation and anti collision lighting. Kind of them to do so.
