This is the moment a swarm of drones fly over an American air base which is set to become home to US nuclear weapons.

The footage obtained by MailOnline features what is suspected to be four drones, brazenly flying with bright lights, in the early evening darkness above RAF Lakenheath, Suffolk.

Reports about American nuclear weapons being deployed to the base for the first time since the Cold War have heightened fears that Russia could be behind the drone activity.

While two of the drones to the left of the screen in the video appear stationary, the other two are shown moving and passing each other on the night of November 28.

The bright light at the top of the screen is believed to be the planet Venus which can be seen in the south-western sky in the month of November.

The planet which is the brightest in the earth’s solar system is often confused with being an aircraft or rocket.

The US Air Force admitted last month that drones had buzzed three of its UK bases – RAF Lakenheath and RAF Mildenhall in Suffolk and nearby RAF Feltwell, Norfolk.

The sightings which are said to have started on November 20 and continued for several days have followed similar drone ‘invasions’ in New Jersey.
