AN ASTONISHING top secret mystery aircraft that "baffled" military experts has been identified as an E-6B 'doomsday' nuclear communications plane.

Published 18th November 2016

Thousands of witnesses spotted the aircraft circling the Denver area in Colorado, US, on Wednesday (November 16). Spooked spectators began questioning where the jet may have come from and what it was doing but multiple military officials failed to identify the plane's origin or even destination.

Now the plane has been identified as an E-6B mercury – a US Airforce mobile command centre used to launch nuclear weapons anywhere in the world. 

 

Local news began tracking the flight – codenamed IRON99 – as it moved from California over the Pacific. After circling the Denver skies for over an hour, the highly secretive aircraft eventually landed at Tinker Airforce base in Oklahoma after its covert mission.

 

Top officials at nearby Buckley Air Force base added to the plane's mystery when they claimed the aircraft never checked in with its traffic control towers. Denver International Airport staff also confirmed no such plane came into contact with them. And top military organisations including The North American Aerospace Defence Command (NORAD) said they couldn’t locate the mysterious flight or even confirm it existed.

 

A survival expert recently revealed to Daily Star Online that Denver is the site of the government's specialist underground bunkers – built to house the most important people in the country in the case of an impending apocalypse. 

 

Denver International Airport has long been subject of many a conspiracy theory due to its runway "shaped like a swastika", murals inside the terminal depicting the end of the world and a mysterious time capsule.

 

The flight was identified as part of the US Navy fleet of 16 E-6B Mercury planes – used to communicate with ballistic missile submarines in the event of nuclear war. The state-of-the-art communications planes can harness the awesome power of the US nuclear weapons arsenal, firing ICBMs (Inter Continental Ballistic Missiles) anywhere in the world. 

 

The Boeing based aircraft – which cost $141.7 million per unit – was reportedly involved in a classified training mission organised by the DoD (Department of Defence).

 

The news comes as it emerged that a top secret US plane has been orbiting the Earth for 500 days.
