Unidentified drones over NJ/NY/DC

But if they are, aren't they showing up on radar and air traffic controllers' screens? If we want to find them, can't we?

They aren't showing up I read....which is odd.

My bet is that these are being flown locally, likely by some US-based org or agency

Released from submarines.

I read this is a concern.

They've seen them in and around the DC region recently too:

So what should the response be if we find out it is Iran, China, or Russia flying drones to harass us and to incite fear into our citizens?

Trump’s new surveillance system. Looking for disloyal libs and those who have not made their monthly denunciation quota.

LOL he can just ask me I'll tell him to his lying face how disgusting I think he is. All the MAGA preach about our freedoms....freedom of speech to tell him he's an a##hat.

A##hat in a red hat

It’s definitely China or Russia. That’s why the Feds say nothing.

Logically, I think it’s military but conspiratorially I think it’s China. If I put on my tin-hat, what if it’s aliens?

It's not aliens.

Actually, it'd be better if it were aliens, because if it is China it'd be a gross violation of our national sovereignty and is on the verge of being an act of war. We should immediately respond with an unrelenting campaign of flying drones over Beijing, Shanghai and Shenzhen if they are IDed as being Chinese. We should also ban all Chinese students visas and cut off all trade.

They have been testing drones being released from subs for over a decade now:

China or Russia may be the first to simply start using them. And they're using them for psyops on us or for mapping strategic targets. Why are we allowing this? Shoot them all down or follow them at least.

Why aren’t they being shot down?

Spotted over south Philadelphia this week, as well

Chinese. They already know Democrats in power will do absolutely nothing. They’re all good friends.

How would China get them here? Drones can't fly that far. And I don't think there are any submarines capable of launching "car sized" drones, and if there were I doubt they could just sit off our coast and not be noticed.

I think these are domestic but whoever's flying them isn't talking and doesn't want to be talked about.

No you didn't - it was too foggy to see anything.

What are you going to use to do it? Anything you use will come down and most likely kill civilians and damage buildings on the ground.

[Anonymous]

Apparently these are new weapons developed by Musk. Jan 20 they will be leased against the US population. Drones do not questions orders to shot civilians.

[Anonymous]

The drones should be easily identifiable

I don't think so. If Russia had this kind of next generation drone capability, we would have seen them deployed in Ukraine over the past three years. Plus, Russia does not have the funds or the access to cutting edge technology presently. And I don't think it's China either. It is very unlikely that China can continuously operate stealth submarines off our most well defended naval bases. They only have 11 nuclear submarines and their newest one sank in a river a few months ago. It is extremely unlikely that China is conducting submarine operations just off shore without being detected. And you can't just secretly launch 20 foot drones from the back of a van near military bases and not be detected.

I am mystified how we haven't shot one down yet. Like the sightings over Langley Air Force base. We have at least 300 F-35s and F-22s within 50 square miles of that base. The only logical explanation is that this a clandestine Skunk Works operation. I'm sure the first time civilians saw a Stealth bomber or the ATC noticed there was something flying at Mach 3 at 85,000 feet and not releasing the Blackbird had been invented must have been confusing. The DoD can't hide this drone program. So they are letting the UFO speculation fly, but they don't seem very keen on "solving the mystery." Nor are they scrambling fighters or lighting up Air Defense when these objects are literally flying over the most sensitive locations in America. Logic suggests the UFOs are ours.
