Details of the craft are hard to come by but it is said to be an
equilateral black triangle, undetectable, near silent with the ability
to hover, and utilizing an underneath light system for visual stealth
at night (similar to the starfield type deception the Lockheed Stealth
Blimp is said to use). Propulsion is non-jet and not in any way
related to the older concept Lampyridae, which would have been a
stealth interceptor in the '80s.
Like all world black budget craft, the Firefly II is in the same class
as the Astra, HALO, etc... leaked, unacknowledged, but flying
somewhere... operational status unknown.

Well if such concept actually is true, it would probably explain the sightings
over Belgium in the early 90s.

Comparisons to that effect have been discussed before, but nobody can
confirm what the Belgian Wave craft are except the suspicion of being
terrestrial HUFOs of military origin (they flew in formation).
Again, we could be looking at Astra, a more advanced HALO, or Firefly
II. The breakthrough in non-jet propulsion supposedly came in the late
'80s/early '90s with FFX (Field Effects) but there is still debate
over who invented it- either the British or US. At that time there was
an agreement with the US and Britain not to share stealth technology
with the European continent. Germany and France, however, had
independent stealth programs of their own from Dassault and DASA. If
the Germans could independently design a F-117 type aircraft (MBB
Lampyridae)without the US finding out about it until 1981 then it is
quite possible that the Germans also developed their own FFX
propulsion system. But I tend to rule out the Belgian Wave sightings
because Firefly II didn't fly until recently (at the time of the
Israeli SSK demonstration off South Africa). HALO also seems unlikely
due to the Belgian triangles size, which is easily larger than the
small Hawk-like HALO prototype spotted in the UK at the time. IMO, if
the Belgian Wave craft were terrestrial then they were probably US
Astra craft based in the UK.
