The Pentagon does NOT know what they are: Military expert says drone invasion which has sparked hysteria in America has caught superpower by surprise - as Trump insider's spread conspiracy theories

America's security chiefs have been caught off guard by the mysterious nationwide drone sightings and don't know what they are dealing with, a military expert has claimed. Fears are continuing to grow in the States over the mysterious objects that have been spotted flying across the sky in a number of cities and bases in the last month - including New Jersey , New York and Washington DC.

Their presence has raised both alarm and confusion, with the Pentagon being criticised for their 'lack of transparency' on the issue. But Colonel Philip Ingram, a former officer in British intelligence, told MailOnline that officials have yet to comment because it allows 'the enemies of the USA to believe they know everything that is going on'.

'The Pentagon isn't this massive organisation that knows everything,' he said. 'They probably don't want people to know that they don't know because they like the myth that is out there.'. The Government's silence on the issue has led many people to offer numerous suggestions and conspiracy theories online - which has been spearheaded by a close advisor to Donald Trump.

Some believe they are Government nuclear weapon detector drones or the result of foreign powers spying on the country. Responding to these claims, Colonel Ingram said there was a 'possibility it could be nefarious activity', but also believed the drone hysteria could be a case of people putting 'two and two together and making seven'.
