Faster than a speeding bulldozer

Watch as smalltownies freak out over one o' dem dere UFO-thingees:

Easy, Kansas; you can stop planning the welcome party for your new alien overlords. It wasn't a UFO... mainly since it wasn't, you know, flying.

It is, in fact, the X-47B being relocated to the east coast. The X-47B is one of the prototype demonstrators for the unmanned fighter planes which will probably replace all manned fighters in U.S. service over the next couple of decades. It was moved to NAS Patuxent River for further testing and development, leading up to carrier trials in 2013.
