This has been going on since the 1940s. I’m only wondering why it’s becoming news now.

The technology to make small, low-cost, coordinated swarms of drones is new, certainly newer than ten years. Much of the tech has emerged in the past five years.

I liked the book UFOs in Wartime by Mack Maloney (Berkley Books,2011). After various fascinating war reports he had one section that was chilling about missile silos at Malmstrom Air Force Base near Grat Falls, Montana, after strange craft reports.

Warnings came in one after another that ten of the ICBM nuclear missiles were inoperable due to malfunctions of their guidance systems. Crews took all night to repair and re-set them.

The book's author said it was fortunate that date March 16, 1967 was not chosen by an enemy for an attack or the missiles would have been useless.(p.216-218)

At Minot Air Fore Base in North Dakota which housed B-52s and ICBM missile silos in July, 1967 several men reported they saw an unknown flying object moving from silo to silo and stopping over each one. Latser a signal flashed saying "Launch in Progress."

They were able to rush to command "Inhibit" on each silo's controls. They said if one "Inhibit" had failed, a nuclear missile would have launched. The base commander and staff issued a statement the next day that "nothing had happened."

I didn’t think that the drones had been around since the 40’s.
