Just before we get to the nitty-gritty of the mystery “metallic blimp”, there’s something you should know.

There’s PC (political correctness) culture in the area of mysterious sightings now, too, or more accurately, a destigmatisation of the overly-used and conspiratorial sounding ‘UFO’.

The more modern term used in defence circles is ‘Unidentified Aerial Phenomena’ (UAPs) or ‘Anomalous Aerial Vehicles’ (AAVs), which are taken very seriously by the intelligence communities in the US.

We know that UFO culture is huge in America (oops sorry, I mean UAP… Ah, it just doesn’t have the same ring to it, does it?) with the US Navy reportedly seeing a lot out there.

Of course, the case is far from closed.

Just in, via Science Alert, are new reports and footage from the US Navy about “pyramid-shaped” objects flying in the sky, and the Pentagon has confirmed its authenticity:

“I can confirm that the referenced photos and videos were taken by Navy personnel,” Pentagon spokesperson Susan Gough said in a statement distributed to numerous media outlets.

“The UAPTF [Unidentified Aerial Phenomena Task Force] has included these incidents in their ongoing examinations.”

Even though the Pentagon has confirmed the authenticity of the imagery, the US Department of Defense (DOD) hasn’t clarified anything further than that:

“As we have said before, to maintain operations security and to avoid disclosing information that may be useful to potential adversaries, DOD does not discuss publicly the details of either the observations or the examinations of reported incursions into our training ranges or designated airspace, including those incursions initially designated as UAP,” Gough said.

Here’s the video:

Apparently, there was another sighting of a spherical vehicle of some kind observed by the crew aboard the USS Omaha, flying into the ocean and disappearing into the water:

The UAPTF documentation suggests the craft was thought to have sunk, but a subsequent search of the area by submarine revealed no wreckage.

Other sightings recorded on the same day in March 2019, by a weapon systems officer, reveal three UAPs seen near Naval Air Station Oceana in Virginia.

Documentary filmmaker Jeremey Corbell also has his hands on classified intelligence briefings:

May 1st 2020 a classified briefing was generated about the UFO / UAP presence via the Office of Naval Intelligence. I was able to obtain information regarding these & other UAP related briefings – as well as – unclassified slides & some intriguing military captured UAP footage. pic.twitter.com/F6V9h64Qfs

Despite the many unanswered questions regarding all of these similar-looking objects (colloquially referred to as the ‘Sphere’, the ‘Acorn’, and the ‘Metallic Blimp’), investigations are still being taken seriously.
