He was speaking as the United States shot down a mysterious object flying in American airspace – the third object brought down by fighter jets in the past week.

Pentagon chiefs have admitted they do not know the origins of the mysterious objects that have been brought down leading to the description ‘UFO’.

Coulthart, an investigative journalist who’s written about UFO’s said it was important to separate these types of objects from Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP).

UAP is the official name for the mystery objects that have been spotted and filmed by the US military and which have led to an official inquiry by the Pentagon.

These have appeared above “nuclear sites, military installations all across the continental United States and indeed in the Middle East”, Coulthart .

“I’ve interviewed pilots from the east and west coast of the United States that have been on training exercises where they’ve literally looked across from the cockpit of their aircraft and they’ve seen spherical objects off their right wing.

“They’ve video them and given them to their commanders and those videos are still being kept confidential.

“They’re subject of enquiries now by an organisation called Arrow, which is a Pentagon UAP Investigation Office, inside the Defense Department of the United States.”

A recently released image captured by a US spy plane shows a metallic orb UFO flying over Iraq.

The picture was included in a classified briefing video shown to American government agencies and it’s claimed that it’s the first time a UFO has been filmed in an active conflict zone.

Coulthart said investigations said that “whatever these objects are, there’s an ongoing mystery that’s never been fully explained”.

He said “hundreds” of objects have appeared in US airspace “posing direct risks to national security” and doing “doing manoeuvres that are far beyond known human science”.

He said he’s spoke to wide variety of aviators including “jet fighter pilots, military reconnaissance pilots, cargo pilots, civilian pilots” all of whom are seeing the phenomena in Australia as well.

Whatever they’re seeing “needs to be investigated”, he said.

UFOs and UAP have moved from the realm of conspiracy theories to be regarded as a US national security problem.

Pentagon officials took the unprecedented step in 2017 of release a trio of remarkable videos which showed "encounters" with UFOs.

Perhaps the most striking was a video known as the tic tac for the way the small white object resembled the sweet.

Commander Dave Fravor and Lt. Commander Alex Dietrich were training with a strike group approximately 100 miles southwest of San Diego.

They were about 100 miles out to sea when their F/A – 18 fighters were diverted to check out an aircraft spotted on radar from another ship, the cruiser USS Princeton.

The UFO first appeared at 80,000ft, then hurtled towards the sea, stopping at 20,000 feet and hovering before dropping out of radar.
