Orb seen hovering in sky, vanished within a few seconds.

I was on my way up to a town (driving in my car) called Dunkirk earlier and I look up in the sky and see this round orb sitting there. From where I was it was small (if you were to hold up a match at arms length, it was the size of a matchhead) and not moving. But it was shiney because the sun was behind me and the orb in front of me.

So I'm like, "hmm, maybe it's just a plane getting hit by the sun" and didn't think much of it.

So I drive about 400-500 yards up this big hill that goes into the town. When I get into the town I look off to my left and I see four military planes in formation off to my left. These planes looked odd and they were hauling ass. I look back to my right (by this time the orb was behind me and to the right) and it was GONE ! In a matter of 30 seconds or so.

Then I look back at the planes and all four of them were turning around above me and headed back to I would guess Andrews Air Force Base in a hurry.

I was blown away. I didn't think it was a UFO at first, but I had my suspicions, now I know it was.

I found a picture of the plane and come to find out, they were Warthogs, here is a link of what the plane looked like: http://www.altixsoft.com/airforce/screenshot3.jpg Here is a picture of what the Orb looked like: http://www.orbwar.com/light/orb-block-005b.jpg
