Very bright, bell-shaped objects dissapear and reappear over Monmouth County, New Jersey.

My father and I were returning from a family dinner in Edison, New Jersey. We were traveling south on the Garden State Parkway when we saw a bell-shaped UFO above the horizon to our front-left. At first we assumed it was a normal plane simply too far away to make out correctly. Then, while I was absentmindedly staring at it, it simply vanished. I was stunned. I began informing my father about what I had just seen when I noticed it had reappeared many miles west from where it disappeared. This happened approximately three more times in a span of about 4 minutes. (While this was happening, I was lucky enough to have my camera with me, so I started snapping a few pictures.) Then it finally vanished from plain view for about five minutes. Then I noticed a jet-fighter flying high in the sky, moving west to east over the trees on the right side of the highway. As I began thinking this could somehow be related to the UFO I had just seen, I noticed it was actually pursuing a UFO of the same description. I witnessed this happen for about fifteen seconds when a second UFO appeared behind and slightly below the jet-fighter. Seconds later both UFOs vanished before my eyes and the jet-fighter was left alone in the sky. For the rest of the ride home, the sky remained UFO-less but I noticed at least a dozen jet-fighters in the sky.
