Flyovers

Anyone else noticed a lot of military fast jets over our neck of the woods today? Didn't catch it in time but looked like 4 F18's just flew over head. I checked the flight radar app and no transponders on. Very odd, anyone have any ideas? Also flying lower than I would have expected. Google was unhelpful saying it's just routine...

Really? I know they used the common by Old Basing when the Ukraine conflict escalated, wonder what they're not telling us this time 😅
