US Navy Confirms 'Unidentified Aerial Phenomena' After Tom DeLonge Submitted Videos

US Navy Confirms 'Unidentified Aerial Phenomena' After Tom DeLonge Submitted Videos

The Blink-182 singer might have finally proved that aliens exist

In a frankly remarkable admission, the US Navy appears to have actually confirmed the existence of 'unidentified aerial phenomena' in a number of videos that show three close encounters between fighter planes and flying saucers.

All three videos are in this article, take a look for yourselves. The fighter pilots seem pretty excited by what they're seeing:

Well, not flying saucers exactly, but you catch the drift.

The three videos were shot in 2004 and 2015 but have been released more recently than that by - and this is arguably as strange - a UFO research organisation run by former Blink-182 singer Tom DeLonge.

US Navy spokesperson Joseph Gradisher told Motherboard: "The Navy considers the phenomena contained/depicted in those 3 videos as unidentified."

They've previously refused to comment, so this is actually pretty big news.

Well, if there are UFOs incurring onto USA airspace, you'd think they'd see it as pretty big news.

In the footage, strange floating objects can be seen performing manoeuvres that simply aren't possible for any aircraft known to man.

Oh, and one of the craft involved in the videos has been described as looking like a flying 'Tic Tac' sweet.

Unidentified, indeed.

So, one of these incidents happened back in November 2004 and was released publicly in December 2017.

Another was filmed in January 2015, and the third was released from the same day by DeLonge's 'To The Stars Academy'.

A leaked report from the Pentagon - the headquarters of the USA's Department of Defence - tells of a sweetie shaped supersonic spacecraft that stalked a US aircraft carrier for a good while before disappearing completely.

Weird, right?

One of the pilots in the report said that the craft in question was 'solid white, smooth, with no edges... uniformly coloured with no nacelles, pylons or wings" and had the appearance of "an elongated egg or Tic Tac'.

Another person responsible for the release of these videos, and the request for further information about them is John Greenwald, the curator of UFO website The Black Vault.

John told Motherboard: "I very much expected that when the U.S. military addressed the videos, they would coincide with language we see on official documents that have now been released, and they would label them as 'drones' or 'balloons,'

"However, they did not. They went on the record stating the 'phenomena' depicted in those videos, is 'unidentified.' That really made me surprised, intrigued, excited and motivated to push harder for the truth."

Due to the number of reports, the US military recently changed their policy with regards to reporting such sightings.

That's because a decent amount of people are reporting 'unauthorised and/or unidentified aircraft entering various military-controlled training ranges and designated airspace'.

As the Blink-182 song goes, Aliens Exist.

Gradisher continued: "The Navy and USAF [United States Air Force] take these reports very seriously and investigate each and every report.

"The information obtained from each individual report of any suspected training range incursion will be investigated in its own right. The information obtained in these reports will be catalogued and analysed for the purpose of identifying any hazard to our aviators,

"Any report generated as a result of these investigations will, by necessity, include classified information on military operations. Therefore, no release of information to the general public is expected."

Well, whether or not it will actually be reported to us or not, the truth - it seems - is definitely out there.
