Images being shared on social media show an unusual looking hybrid aircraft in the skies around the Malvern Hills.
The aircraft is called a Bell Boeing Osprey, and it can hoover like a helicopter but transition in flight to a conventional plane.
It can carry 24 troops at a speed of 360 mph with around eight hours flying time - enough to travel comfortably around the length and breadth of the United Kingdom.
It is not known which arm of the military is responsible for the Ospreys, but both the US and UK military operate these state-of-the-art aircraft.
