Thread about the patent here, US Navy "UFO" patent by Salvatore Cezar Pais (also relevant post #41 by @FatPhil in the Meta Materials From UFOs thread). In that thread, @flarkey linked to The War Zone article "The Navy Finally Speaks Up About...

National secrets cannot be patented. If anything, this is a counter-intelligence operation, designed to confuse America's adversaries. Or Pais found some military brass without access to reliable science advisors.

Thank you. There are massive red flags in that wikipedia article: He reported that he began in 2015 to publish his patents "after rejections from academic publishing" No working prototype of any of the patented inventions was ever developed...
