Many people online speculate that the drones spotted in New Jersey might be the PteroDynamics Transwing X-P4.
This drone transitions between two configurations: a quadcopter mode (7 feet by 4 feet) for vertical takeoff and landing and a fixed-wing airplane mode (7 feet by 13 feet) for efficient flight.
PteroDynamics has contracts with the U.S. Navy, which tests drones at the Naval Air Station at Joint Base McGuire-Dix-Lakehurst in New Jersey.
The company has also carried out test flights from the flight deck of the USNS Burlington, which is currently stationed in New Jersey.
This capability might explain the drone sightings reported from the sea.
These sightings are likely tied to classified U.S. Navy drone testing, which explains the federal government’s silence on the matter.
If these drones are not the PteroDynamics X-P4, they are likely similar unmanned aerial systems being evaluated by the U.S. military.
That's the most logical explanation for why the federal government is allowing these operations to happen.
At this point, it appears to be as much an experiment in psychological operations as it is a test of drone technology.
If true, it begs the question, Why test these things over densely populated areas? Why not in the remote west? ... or some place over the ocean away from shipping lanes?
Maybe our government searching for a nuclear device with the drones.
We already have much more sensitive detection systems in existing airplanes. Airplanes that would cause a lot less notice due to regular training exercises like you might find around McGuire or Oceana.

Maybe our government searching for a nuclear device with the drones. Maybe we are we watching "The Sum of all Fears" movie playing out in real life. Scroll down and watch the video and decide for yourself. https://www.airport-suppliers.com/product/arktis-radiation-detection-drone/
