This question has arisen recently amid rumors about a mysterious and devastating new U.S. capability, but what does science and available intelligence say about such futuristic warfare technologies? This week on The Micah Hanks Program , we examine the recent sonic weapon claims, along with a look at other purported weapons and other capabilities comprising the alleged \"secret arsenal\" of the U.S. military. We also take a look further back in time at the beginnings of the world of \"Black Projects\" in the aftermath of World War II, the acquisition of secret German technologies, and how Cold War secrets and \"UFO Mania\" have all contributed to the public's ideas about the existence of secretive warfare capabilities. Have you had a UFO/UAP sighting? Please consider reporting your sighting to the UAP Sightings Reporting System, a public resource for information about sightings of aerial phenomena.
