At least those videos [1] are just birds, see for example this analysis [2]. Skip to the meat of it, if you dislike the style of the video. [1] link [2] ▶ this video
I've said it once, I'll say it again-- these videos are all explained and all have been debunked. This is most likely a advertisement for the US Military's ability to track very small things such as drones. If there are videos of things that might be alien-- these are not them. ▶ this video link link link link Bob Lazar debunk: link
It is obvious to any expert that these are not space aliens. that makes the question of why the Navy is hyping them even more interesting. ▶ this video
These are not aliens. Media love to insinuate that they are because it gets clicks. (or even outright say they are aliens) ▶ this video link link
This video argues that the object was probably just a bird, and the apparent speed was a result of parallax. Seems more plausible than the alternatives. ▶ this video
The recently declassified 'UFO' sightings have been pretty thoroughly debunked as spurious. ▶ this video
