A UFO shaped like a cigar which mirrors several similar objects seen over the US has been spotted above Kansas.

The bizarre footage starts with the camerawoman filming a plane above Wichita.

But his focus is then drawn towards a bright cylindrical object nearby.

Just as the plane goes out of shot the glowing “craft” comes into view.

It seems to bear a resemblance to similar cigar-shaped and snake-like UFOs seen across the country in recent months.

“What in the hell is that?” the person behind the camera asks as birds begin squawking in the background.

“What in the f***?

“Okay, I’m confused, that is not a goddamn plane – that’s a plane.”

The footage was originally posted to YouTube by UFO Report in June, but has since resurfaced on YouTube.

“That is a good one,” one wrote.

Another commented: “Great footage, I wonder if the birds are going crazy.”

While a third said: “This is the second video I have seen of this exact one.”

Daily Star Online has previously revealed that a former police detective believes the US government is silently monitoring the snake-like UFOs seen across the country.

Detective Constable-turned UFO hunter Gary Heseltine told this site that the cigar-shaped UFOs “have been seen for decades”.

And a US Marine told this site that the craft are “not military”.

Nick Karnaze, an ex-United States Marine Corps soldier who served in Afghanistan as an Intel Officer, also told this site that the objects have been seen across the Earth.

Speaking exclusively with Daily Star Online, Nick said: "It's interesting because if we're assuming that this could be a potentially classified government programme you'd expect it to be that those types of objects are restricted to certain areas.

"But now that we have reports from various countries across the globe of witnesses seeing similar objects.

"For me, it indicates something potentially beyond a classified programme because, again, in the military community you're only going to be testing those classified programmes in certain areas."
