People have cat3moviebeen spotting a military blimp up in the sky that the Singapore Air Force just started testing.
The blimp, made by U.S. manufacturer TCOM, is radar-equipped and is meant to add an extra set of eyes to alert the military to possible threats, the Straits Timesreported.

Most sightings have been reported in the Western region of Singapore, near the Choa Chu Kang Camp, where the blimp is taking off from.
The Airforce had been keen to deploy the blimp since late 2014, but has been testing it for safety, and only just approved it for flight tests in the country a week ago.
