(Natural News) The Department of Defense is testing artificial intelligence programs that could, if fully developed, “see days in advance.” United States Northern Command (USNORTHCOM) recently conducted a series of experiments with the Pentagon and the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD). These tests were known as the Global Information Dominance Experiments (GIDE). GIDE combined global sensor networks, […]

(Natural News) The U.S. Air Force said it is developing small, bird-like drones that can flap their wings and change direction mid-flight. It partnered with California-based company Airion Health LLC to develop a prototype of the remote-controlled mini-air vehicle (MAV). The Air Force said the new MAV, which can imitate either insect or bird flight, […]

(Natural News) The Air Force is investigating “directed energy” (DE) technologies they hope could turn beams of energy into a force field that could be used to destroy enemy missiles similar to Israel’s Iron Dome. In a new report titled “Directed Energy Futures 2060,” DE is described as “a focused beam of electromagnetic energy that […]

(Natural News) The U.S. Pentagon has a 23-minute video that shows UFOs moving in a very strange pattern, one intelligence insider has admitted.

(Natural News) The Department of Defense paid Air Force scientist Salvatore Pais to develop a “trans-medium” military craft modeled after unidentified flying objects (UFO) that can operate both in air and underwater. The Pentagon funded the project out of concern that China might already have advanced UFO technology at its disposal. Pais was formerly an aerospace engineer for the Naval […]
