Retired U.S. Air Force Lieutenant General David Deptula gave details of the destruction of a plane in Alaska by the U.S. military. It has been reported Fox News.
“The incident is quite confusing,” said the former soldier, noting that there was no indication of the device’s origin.
According to him, the apparatus did not have any propulsion system and, most likely, did not have special devices for conducting espionage operations. The object was cylindrical and silver in color.
according to the newspaper El Mundo, the object was dropped over one of Alaska’s largest unused oil fields and was over Bullen Point, where the United States had radar from 1957 to 1994 to monitor the possible arrival of Soviet nuclear missiles over the Arctic. The unidentified vehicle was also very close to the Trans-Alaska oil pipeline.
