MYSTERY surrounds a UFO-like aircraft that was seen being towed into a top-secret US military base.
According to reports, it was spotted at Lockheed Martin’s secretive Helendale radar-cross section (RCS) measurement facility in the Mojave Desert, California.
A short video of the unidentified aircraft first emerged on TikTok and then the location was tracked down by internet sleuth Ruben Hofs.
The footage shows what looks like an inverted stealth aircraft shape being transported on a flatbed trailer, while a voice can be heard saying: “What the f**k is that?”
Mr Hofs said the scaffolding in the background appeared to be the Helendale Radar Cross Section Facility.
He also noted the shape of the aircraft was different from typical test aircrafts
This site is located near Lockheed Martin’s Skunk Works headquarters at Plant 42 in Palmdale.
It has played a key role in the development of US stealth aircraft since the early 1980s.
The footage has been shown to Gen Mark Kelly, Air Combat Command chief, Defense Editor for AviationWeek Steve Trimble.
Mr Trimble said: “His immediate reply was that he had no idea what it was.
“And then he took my laptop and stared at it for about 20 seconds. His expression was somewhere between confused and impressed.”
On Friday, a “TIC-TAC” shaped UFO was spotted flying and appearing to shapeshift near a US Space Force base, a skywatcher has claimed.
Jason Suraci filmed several strange orbs and pill-like objects over the air-force base and posted them on his YouTube channel and Instagram.
The aerial phenomena were said to have been repeatedly over spotted over Buckley Space Force base in Aurora, Colorado, US.
US Space Force units are tasked with protecting US satellites orbiting the planet and were first set up by Donald Trump in December 2019.
Mr Suraci shared numerous snippets of footage that showed the objects during broad daylight and a night using a night vision camera.
The objects appear to change shape while others are similar to the infamous “Tic Tac” UFO filmed by US Navy pilots in an infamous encounter in 2004.
It comes as the US continues to probe UFOs — now more commonly known as Unidentified Aerial Phenomena (UAPs) — following the release of a much-anticipated report by the Pentagon.
The Pentagon UAP report confirmed there have been numerous unexplained encounters between the US military and UFOs — and it did not rule out the possibility of aliens.
In June the Pentagon released its UAP Task Force report which revealed 144 unexplained UFO encounters with the military including “Tic Tac” shaped UFOs buzzing US warships and warplanes.
The report — officially titled “Preliminary Assessment: Unidentified Aerial Phenomena” —- was released after the US Congress passed a bill by the Trump administration.
