Fox news is again pushing the CIA story that UFO reports were nothing more than sightings of the U-2. First this is from FAUX NEWS.... apart from that, Ironball is a low reflective paint, Polished aluminum was only briefly the norm for the U-2, and most of those early flights were fare rarer than UFO reports at the time. At altitude a U-2 crawls, it does not flash across the sky, and it is not self luminous at night, so all in all this is just another outrageous lie and cover-up from the CIA. FAUX NEWS is only now saying this, the lie was first made a long time ago (2013), why the push now to try and give it traction?.... ( it was a CIA twitter campaign to ring the bell for a lazy mass media.)
