Drone Mistaken for UFO Along DC Highways
WASHINGTON - People in the DC area are buzzing after pictures began popping up online showing what many believed to be a 'UFO' in transport along the Capitol Beltway. The spotting took place around 11:00 pm Wednesday when drivers first saw the craft being hauled on a flatbed truck on I-270, and then again down I-495. An official at Northrop Grumman confirmed to FOX 5 on Thursday that the craft was actually an X-47B Unmanned Combat Air System.

It wasn't the first time this style of aircraft had been mistaken for a 'UFO' while being transported. Last year, residents of Cowley County, Kansas made a similar mistake. DefenseTech.org reported that last year, engineers practiced aircraft carrier take-offs and landings with the drone on a strip of runway at Patuxent Station that's painted to resemble a carrier's flight deck.
