The US has shot down UFO (unidentified flying object) that it said was flying near sensitive military sites, suspecting its use for spying.
The latest object was downed near the Huron in Michigan on the orders of President Joe Biden, according to Sky News.
A US F-16 aircraft fired the missile at some 20,000ft, with concerns that the UFO's altitude and flightpath could pose a danger for civilian planes.
A senior official, speaking on condition of anonymity, described the object as "an octagonal structure with strings hanging off but no discernible payload."
Fighter aircraft were scrambled Saturday after radar spotted an object over Montana, which could not be located and was then thought to be a result of a system error.
On Saturday (Feb 11), a US F-22 fighter jet shot down another UFO, this time over Alaska, days after the heated ‘Chinese balloon’ controversy.
The latest craft, an object the size of a small car, was downed by a Sidewinder missile, Reuters quoted US Brig Gen Patrick Ryder, Pentagon’s chief spokesperson, as saying.
