Nope, not a UFO in the aliens sense, but certainly in the strictest form of the term, it is indeed Unidentified, It's flying, and it's an object. Secondly, we can see it's a plane of some sort, but not one known as of yet. Having seen lots of cool stuff while I served in the Army, I just get excited over Military Technology. That aircraft, whatever it is, is military, I am positive, I speculate that it's one of a very few things... Recon craft (Like the U-2 and Blackbird), part of the government's stretch to hyper-sonic strike capability, or possibly a new military craft for space.. I find the latter to be least likely.

Speculation encouraged Cool

Sort of.

It's really just a box of Reynold's Wrap, tbh.

Yeah.

I found the so called pic of it. Looks like a stealth drone to me.

No conspiracy here.

For real. I've related the story somewhere in Like and get Likes, of seeing a "UFO" in West Virginia in 1979, but even I know it was an experimental aircraft.

Aliens just are not going to be coming around.

That's a human-made aircraft. Alien craft don't have contrails. They're in the energy phase of matter, not material phase.

And by the way, a true fact: When the wind blows from the south in the spring, the city of Amarillo, TX smells like cow manure.

I'm certain it's not alien craft LOL. Contrails are earthly, meaning something we know happens with known propulsion systems.

Not conspiracy here LOL. Don't misread me. I posted it because I think new aircraft are cool. That's all. Has NOTHING to do with conspiracies or aliens LOL.

Being that Hyper-sonic strike capability is a big push these days, I'd be willing to bet that this craft IS a drone. China apparently has a hyper-sonic nuclear delivery missile.... And the US apparently is pushing to make hyper-sonic strike capability so it can reach world wide within very little time. I'm no expert...
