With unidentified drones being spotted over US military bases in UK as ‘sinister’ sightings continue, Tom Swarbrick speaks to drone warfare expert Professor David H Dunn.
The US air force says it is still investigating the ‘small unmanned aerial systems’ seen in recent days.
A spokesman for United States air forces in Europe explained that the small drones “continue to be spotted” above UK bases, with a fourth US airbase targeted in recent days.
Bases across the UK saw troops and counter-drone measures deployed following a string of sightings, with the increased presence aimed at deterring the unmanned craft.
Professor David H Dunn says: ‘The Russians could be signalling intent in terms of their wider conflict with the West.’

Drones or uaps?
gangs lol…
Who is reporting these sightings to the press? Why would the military openly expose their inability to handle this simple situation, if it really is only drones?
A consequence of the theory of drones is that they must have bad intentions when they are continuing flying these drones. Would it be some people doing this by mistake they would notice the attention this gets by now and stop with what they are doing, probably even come forward and tell it was them. Because this is not happening the ones doing this must have bad intentions and by now it would be nothing but reasonable to just shoot these things down. Make a statement about drones not being okay there.
Why aren’t the military, or someone else, flying up with their own drone and capture close up footage of these drones so we can all see what they are?
Something really odd is going on here. It seems they can’t shoot them down or come close to them. But why tell the public about it when it’s this embarrassing?
Drones can make big pictures in the sky, controlled by a computer.
There was a drone flying above the Northampton Army Reserve Centre recently. Less than a month ago, for a few days. Sus.
3 nights now I knew I was wright
Do we have a footage?
UFOs, man.. This is Andromeda galaxy stuff.
The drones are identifying strategic Targets in the UK and their vulnerabilities. These will include military bases, radar detectors, factories, ports, oil refineries and data centres.
Someone ask professor there for proof and who was there blockheads over Gatwick. As far as I’m aware no drones was actually there other than police drones.
