On 12 November 2024, surveillance teams in rural Manitoba observed an unregistered experimental drone (“The Nightingale”) exhibiting self-repair capabilities after sustaining structural damage. Subject-47 emitted a high-frequency pulse that temporarily disabled all electronic devices within a 50 m radius, necessitating immediate containment.
Subject-47 appears as a 2.3 m wingspan UAV of unknown manufacture. Its fuselage is coated in a chameleon-like composite that shifts texture under radar illumination. During the incident, a small explosive charge breached the left wing, which subsequently resealed itself over 14 minutes without external intervention. Internal logs recovered from the craft’s encrypted module indicate a bio-synthetic neural network controlling both flight and repair functions.
Store Subject-47 in an electromagnetically shielded hangar (Chamber B-4) at Site 19.
Maintain a continuous –20 dB Faraday cage around the chamber.
Allow only robotic drones (Model XR-3) for inspection; all human entry requires Class-D respirators and EMP-hardened gear.
Perform weekly integrity checks on both composite shell and internal neural matrix; record anomalies in secure logs.
Log 47-A (12/11/2025 – Initial Impact):
02:17 UTC: Drone struck by unidentifiable projectile.
02:19 UTC: High-frequency pulse issued; Site 19 power grid offline for 3 minutes.
02:25 UTC: Wing panel fully reattached; pulse ceased.
Log 47-B (12/12/2025 – Data Extraction):
Extraction team deployed XR-3 drone.
Retrieved encrypted core unit; decryption initiated.
Subject-47 employs an adaptive repair algorithm—likely a hybrid of synthetic mycelium and nanocarbon filaments. The pulse frequency (47 kHz) suggests intentional design to incapacitate civilian electronics. Further study of its neural encrypted module may yield breakthroughs in self-healing materials, but also presents a high risk of weaponization. A proposal for reverse-engineering trials is currently under review by Site 19’s R&D Council.
