    Was UFO towed down Kansas street? The truth is out there
    Secretive transport of strange-shaped, heavily cloaked craft draws curiosity

    A few days ago, a "UFO" was spotted cruising down a main street in Cowley County, Kansas. It wasn't in the skies, but instead being hauled on a flatbed truck driving down the middle of US Highway 77.

    From at least one angle, the strange-shape aircraft resembled a saucer, and was covered by what appeared to be an industrial-strength tarp (or perhaps a badly malfunctioning cloaking device).

    The vehicle, at about 30 feet across, was so big that local law enforcement had to remove roadside signs to allow safe passage — as well as some measure of security. Many locals suspected (or at least joked) that that it might have been a UFO or some top-secret aircraft. Local sheriff Don Read said he was not allowed to divulge much about the mysterious craft, though he did let slip the detail that it was not recovered at a crash site, but rather had been manufactured by the aerospace company Northrop Grumman.

    Looked good, but just one look at the landing gear makes it a man made aircraft.

    I think they nailed it when they called it the X-47B. It is just being transported with it's wings either folded or removed.
