Europe was visited several times during March 2018 by unknown flying US operators.
Although clandestine is not the right word, the aircraft are assumed to be "stealthy" operated by, or are operated for different US departments. The Department of Defense (DOD) or the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) are the most probable operators.
The "cover" aircraft are predominantly seen in civil colours. Coming from Norway, an ATR42-300 with serial N212AZ was noted above Denmark at the beginning of March. Also, looking at the different flight history, the aircraft are also seen in- and above disputed countries. Searching deeper on the Net for an operator you will find Blue Ridge Aero Service, Jefferson Financial Group and the Kramer Investment Company as the faciltators and/ or owners of such aircraft. Also, Blue Ridge Aero Service seems to have a fleet of three Aersospatiale/ Aeritalia ATR42s that are frequently visiting Europe.
