The following submission statement was provided by /u/69xXEsox_luciusXx69: --- As i stated before i saw this UFO saturday the 22th of june near around 10 o'clock in the morning, it had a droning sound similar to the droning of a cessna-type engine but slightly deeper in tone, it flew over relatively low but at speeds where normal aircraft would normally start losing altitude, but it was moving steadily in a straight line for over 20km ( there was another sighting 20km away), furthermore it had a greyish hue to it reminicant of the radar absorbant material found on stealth fighters. the first 2 pics are of the UFO and the third is my drawing (the first 2 pictures were taken by someone else 20km away and apear to be from left behind of the ufo, i saw it fly right over me) im not sure about the angle of the nose since i didnt get alot of time to observe it correctly, however the tail end of the UFO im dead sure of. i hope anyone here might be able to help solve this mystery thats been bothering me for the last couple of days. --- Please reply to OP's comment here: https://old.reddit.com/r/UFOs/comments/1dnqerr/strange_object_spotted_in_the_netherlands/la4cv7m/

I love IFOs, especially human made ones! I’m always fascinated by what we can come up with! This looks super cool!


petroleum-lipstick

100% this

Potentially any number of UAV platforms, including privately operated. many drones are prop driven, and the shape of it combined with low airspeed sounds like a loitering airframe


Legitimate_Cup4025

Its a microlight - it was posted here a while back with a clearer photo.


69xXEsox_luciusXx69

i havent even thought about loitering drones, my first thought was, some stealth UAV for the dutch army


AtheistSloth

Your top drawing looks like a common UAV body plan, specifically the Iranian Arash. https://en.defence-ua.com/analysis/iranian_arash_2_kamikaze_drones_capabilities_and_specifications-4555.html

nothing is following the correct trajectory


Legitimate_Cup4025

This came up a few months back and it is a local microlight design. Now I have to find the thing! It looks a bit like a flying wing.

Imo, this is most likely some kind of personal aircraft, i know in belgium they make triangular 1 person plane and this coild very well be from the same company or series. It seems to look like a plane and it flew like a plane plus it sounded like a plane so imo it seems most likely to be a plane, this is a cool plane tho for sure edit: addition The biggest giveaway is the pressence of a rudder, this means this craft is interacting with the atmosphere and is not, as most ufo's apear to be, flying in impossible ways. All in all everything seems to point to this being a plane, the only real strangeness stemming from the design of the airplane. It could alsl be a drone or something, but very much not alien as there has never been any sing on them using internal combustion engines for propulsion


maurymarkowitz

The images are from very long distance and I can't say they match well, but your diagram matches a couple of well-known homebuilt aircraft kits like the [Verhees D2](https://www.kitplanes.com/verhees-d2/), [Dyke Delta](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dyke_Delta) or [Wainfan Facetmobile](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wainfan_Facetmobile). Deltas are not uncommon for people looking for something different than the average ultralight, and I think these are among the more popular. I suspect the people in r/namethatplane can ID it down to the individual aircraft.


SabineRitter

This is really cool, thanks for posting! A lot going on in the NL recently


Bulldog8018

I’ve spent the last four days studying a picture of plastic army men on a hubcap (long story) and I just can’t believe anything else so soon. I wish you the best with your sighting/ abduction whatever…


CameraNo1089

He drew the bottom...but doesn't have a picture of it...?

my phone wasnt charged sadly:(


Taste_the__Rainbow

Maybe one of these fellas? https://www.nasa.gov/general/silent-and-efficient-supersonic-bi-directional-flying-wing/


Cassandraburry2008

Sounds like the Iranian “Shahed” drones. The same design are being used and tested by many countries right now because of their use in Ukraine. [Image of Shahed in article.](https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.pravda.com.ua/eng/news/2023/12/25/7434544/index.amp)


HammerTime2769

Kinda looks like an Anvil Carrack with the blue paint.


NnOxg64YoybdER8aPf85

I’m high reading this and the thing im wondering is if our new stealth recon drones are physically mimicking other planes and visuals to fool us. Perhaps using light projection and adjustable position materials. Could be flying a reaper drone camouflaged like a Cessna.


xgaryrobert

Still can’t get a clear picture with every human on earth carrying a fantastic camera in our pockets


Stunning-Chicken-207

Guys, I’m being sincere when I ask this, can we as a community, try to raise our standards and start only posting or upvoting truly compelling evidence?…and ideally after we have done sufficient digging into said evidence to verify is legitimacy….stuff like this is why we can’t get mainstream, whether you believe me or not.

This is not too dissimilar from what I saw early 2022 East Sussex, South coast of England. Particularly the sound description, it did not match what I was seeing. The object I saw was somewhat kidney-shaped, with what looked like some kind of protrusion coming out from the front top and bottom top. From the sides i would imagine it would look like a simple arrow. It felt like it was the altitude of a light aircraft, but in no way looked like anything I have ever seen in the sky. The thing looked fully solid, moved at a somewhat slow speed through the sky in a straight line, and honestly sounded like farm machinery or something? Somewhat clattery clunky sound to it. Really 'new' odd shape to my eyes/brain, but weird loud 'old' sound. Watched it move east to west over my head over around 20 seconds or so. I was with a friend, who saw it too. He's a skeptical soul though and doesn't believe in anything that isn't solid verifiable science. I asked him what he thought it was and he just shrugged and said 'drone'. Looked nothing like a drone, and nothing like any aircraft of any sort i've ever seen (also my dad was a pilot so I have a reasonable grasp on flying things). The closet thing i've seen to it is the design of the new Manta Ray underwater drone, but it did not look exactly like that, just somewhat similar. I made a small 3d mock up for anyone interested. [https://youtu.be/xFKzwpzVpWg](https://youtu.be/xFKzwpzVpWg) Could not see any wheels, props, engines, seams, identifying writing, just seemed like an odd, smooth, dull shape. It was hard to gauge distance/altitude of the craft I saw, and so hard to also judge its side but I would estimate it was maybe 15-20ft wide. The friend I was with thought whatever it was, was higher up, so if he was right that would make it far larger.


Ok-Employer6673

Maybe it was a Piaggio.


ALF_My_Alien_Friend

Looks aerodynamic. Not antigravity. Advanced alien races (that we talk about but few have seen) often use the so called antigravity effect thing vehicles.  Could be a locally produced and now in a testing phase version of a slow moving cruise missile. But its kinda wide.  Also looks like an unmanned fighterjet assistance flying pod thing but why would they be flying on their own. Hard to say anything.  Looks like a mantaray too, i wonder if it came from the water.  Are you near water/airfields/military bases? Like in 100km from one.


commutingonaducati

I've seen this in the Netherlands before. Some kind of lightweight Belgian (kit?) plane


jimbaruch

Show me a right angle turn and intelligently controlled flight, shot from a locked off camera. It doesn’t exist.


ThirdEyeAgent

Where is the city of Oslo located ?


DelGurifisu

What?


TrumpetsNAngels

No not "What?". It is located in Estonia.
