Some can be explained by the presence of drones or birds creating confusion in the radar systems of the American military. Others may come from tests on military equipment or technology conducted by other powers, such as China or Russia.
The U.S. military and intelligence are primarily concerned with determining whether they are unspecified aerial events can be attributed to threats against the United States.
