I know it’s a P-8, but what base is it from. I saw it at Msp in the delta handstand.

Spotted in tandem over elizabethtown, PA at 1015 today

I checked the flight radar, and unless I filtered out military, the two planes weren't on there. Flying very slow. 05OCT24 at 1015

Help identifying an old Soviet Jet.

My brother is serving abroad at the moment and came across some old Soviet jets. There is one we can't identify though so I thought I would ask your help please.

Can anyone tell me what plane this is please?

I think it's a Eurofighter because of the large delta wing but I honestly don't know. Any help would be appreciated (:

Can anyone identify this aircraft?

Looks similar to a B2, but much smaller and slightly different shape. I only make the B2 comparison because it’s located near the Grumman factory in Palmdale. I attached a photo of a nearby B2 on the same airfield for reference.

What plane is this?

Passed this when driving through Milton west Virginia. I think it might be an f 86 although when I drove passed it looked a little different on the bottom. The number on the nose was "fu 890" I couldn't make out the tail number but it may have been the same. When I googled it nothing came up. Thanks for any help.

Mysterious "I-18" from "The Aeroplane Spotter 1941"

It looks to me like a MiG-3 some of the details are strangely different. Canopy is longer than usual and the Air intake seems to be bigger and a bit more behind.

What aircraft is this?

Took this photo in Oregon (south of Portland) today, is this a UAV? Looks like Pakistan’s Nescom Burraq, but maybe there is an american drone that looks like this?

Alternating red and green lights in a circle

So my mom saw what she said was a hexagon shaped thing flying over our house and in straight line over the woods and eventually away. It was 5:30am so it was dark. She said the lights were red and green but they were going around the object like circling and alternating. So red going around, then green. I fly drones so I’m at least familiar with the red and green meaning the left and right of the drone but I’ve never seen something alternate.

If anyone has any idea what she could have seen that would do that it would be awesome.

We had a tornado last night here in Ohio touch down about 15 mins away. We also have the Ravenna arsenal which I believe is operated by the national guard and does frequent c130 flyovers. Trying to give anything that might help narrow down what it could be.
