My fiance and I took our dog potty, I saw the craft pass overhead, followed by a helicopter.

On March 28th, 2025, at around 1:20 AM my fiance and I decided to take our dog potty one last time before we settled in for the night, and my fiance decided to play with her as well, while she was throwing the ball to our pup, I noticed a light in the distance that I assumed was a plane so I watched it fly intrigued but as it passed overhead there were a number of unusual details that lead me to believe this was a UFO or UAP.

Firstly, there was absolutely no sound, even as it flew overhead it was silent, there was also an eerie silence of insect noises, traffic, and ambient night sounds that normally occur in our area. Secondly, as it flew overhead I noticed it was triangular in shape, and the structure was unlike any plane I have ever seen (even stealth planes) my grandfather was a pilot and served in the Air Force so I grew up looking at pictures and seeing different military planes as well, this craft had an “X” in the middle of the triangle that almost looked like support beams of some kind and gave the craft the appearance of having three holes or cutouts in its wings. Third, the object was flying very low, just below the lowest clouds and wasn't moving fast (relative to planes) at all, it took about 15-20 seconds for it to pass completely over our dog park, the craft moved in steady from the east to overhead and while overhead smoothly transitioned into flying south-southwest with no noticeable banking or deceleration. Lastly, roughly 1-2 minutes after the craft was gone I saw another light in the east coming from the same spot the first craft did, as it approached I heard the telltale sound of helicopter blades, sure enough flying almost the exact path at what appeared to be the same altitude was a helicopter, this is a common thing to see in my area but what was odd about it and made me even more suspicious was that it had a spotlight sweeping the sky in front of the helicopter, not the ground as they usually do, almost as if searching for the craft I had just seen.

I came inside after telling my fiance what I just saw (she did not witness the craft, only saw that I was fully invested and distracted) and drew it while it was fresh in my memory as I didn't have my phone to take photos or video.
