The Trump White House confirmed that the drones observed over New Jersey in late November and early December were part of a classified U.S. government program, authorized by the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA).
White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt stated that the drones were not hostile and were used for research and other purposes. Although she did not explicitly label the program as classified, the lack of detailed information suggests it was indeed a classified operation.
Three potential explanations for the drone activity are proposed:
1. The Department of Energy's Nuclear Emergency Support Team (NEST) might have been searching for missing nuclear or radioactive material.
2. The Department of Defense could have been testing new drones for intelligence or combat operations in urban areas.
3. The Department of Defense might have been testing new drone detection systems or anti-drone electronic warfare technology.
The article on Sonar21 dismisses earlier speculation, including claims by Congressman Jeff Van Drew, that the drones were of foreign or extraterrestrial origin. Instead, it confirms the drones were part of a U.S. government program, though the exact nature of the operation remains undisclosed.
