In 1946 strange missile-like objects soared over Sweden, now known as the Ghost Rockets. Over 2000 incidents were recorded, with 200 being confirmed via radar, this phenomena was so mysterious that certain authorities claimed that they were extraterrestrial in origin.
Though thought to be meteorites, there is little evidence that is the case.
Still today, no responsibility has been claimed nor found for these illusive rockets.

ITT: we speculate on the possibilities (terrestrial only, this isn't /x/ after all) for said sightings with our masterful command of history and knowledge of nation's capabilities.

Ruskies doing flight testing?

Most likely. Either Swedish or Russian experimentation. Sweden have always had a boner for radio-controlled weapons. Pick related.

And what about New Swabia? Or rather, what Americans found there during Operation Highjump? Why so many people died there?

It's like it can endanger the tank.

>kerosene

First off, it's diesel, dude. Second, the thing's armor is more than capable of guarding against any fires which might start due to enemy action. Third, before rolling into combat, standard procedure is to use the fuel in those cans to top off so that there's nothing to ignite, anyway.
