r. arc authorized by the Belgian Ministry of Defence to publish this documentation. It's "the scoop of the skies". These two screens (shown in the accompanying photos) are the incontestable testimony lo an encounter between Science ami Fiction. For the first time ever, the Belgian Air Force has agreed to divulge the radar-images of a UFO intercepted by the pilots of its F-IGs. The recordings were registered during the night from March 30 to March 31, 1990.
STRATEGIC OPERATIONS Ever since November I9U9, the Belgian Military have been on the alert. Numerous Gendarmerie reports are coming in daily, describing sightings of UFOs, over the national territory of Belgium. It had all begun on that crazy night of November 29, 1989, during which thirty groups of eyewitnesses (including three Gendarmerie patrols), scattered over a distance of 800 kilometres between Liege and the Belgian/ German and Belgian/Dutch frontiers, observed, over a period of hours, a strange triangular and almost silent apparatus moving very slowly, and at a very low altitude, and without creating the slightest tubulencc. Like all the Air Forces in the world, the Belgian Military possess supersonic aircraft that stand ready, 24 hours a day, to take off at five minutes' notice. Here it means two single-seater F-lOs armed with missiles. On j u n e 22, 1990, after submitting to all the Security checks, I find myself in the Headquarters of the Belgian Air Force, near Brussels. In a small room, Colonel Dc Brouwcr, Chief of the Operations Section of the Belgian Air Force, switches on a video tape-recorder. On the video screen appears the film .brought back in the "block W o f the F-I6 aircraft that, in the night of March 3 0 / 3 1 last, was sent up in pursuit of an unidentified flying object. (This isn't the really big chase that was to happen two weeks later, .Maybe we arc not alone in the Universe.
.
The entire happening is as though the mystery machine was guided intelligently to evade its pursuers. And during the next hour the same scenario will be enacted twice more. The official report furnished by the Headquarters of the Belgian Air Force to SOBEPS (The Belgian Society for the Study of Space Phenomena) stales: "In three cases, the pilots managed to tack their radars an lo the target for a few seconds, and eadi time this brought about a drastic diange in Ute behaviour of the UFO. " The UFO is literally playing hide-and-seek with the fighters. It dives towards the ground at ver^ high speed to evade both the radars of the aircraft and the ground-radars, and then quietly climbs again at low speed a little further on, thus re-appearing onc4_more upon the radarscopes and starling ofT a fresh process of attempted interception. l l i i s staggering merry-go-round is observed from the ground by a large number of eyewitnesses (including twenty Gendarmes). They see the UFO and they sec the two F-IGs, but during the entire duration of tlie affair (75 minutes) nobody hears ie famous supersonic 'bang' that ought lo have accompanied te olijects paj sage llirough tlie sound barrier! No material damage was reported from immediately below the event, wltereas, given the speed and Uie tow altitude of tire metcliine, its breaking of tlxe sound-barrier ought to lusve ted to the shattering of an incalculable number of panes of glass, THERMORETNCT MACHINE IS C A P O L E OF FLYING AT 1,800 KMS.P.H. SO CLOSE TO THE G R O U N D , IN SUCH DENSE AIR y\ND A FORTIORI - WITHOUT EVEN MAKING ANY BANC. ' Next I asked: "Was it a natural phenomenon, or the re-entry into the Earth's atmosphere of a piece of rocket debris?" Answer: "No. A meteorite or a rocket fragment does not penetrate our atmosphere in a zig-zag fashion. And the analysis of the radar recordings shows numerous changes of direction. Furthermore, the atmospheric conditions at the time ruled out any phenomenon of an electromagnetic nature". Professor Jean-Pierre Petit of France |This highranking physicist, who is a Director of Research at the French National Centre For Scientific Research (CNRS) and who has just recently written the book
Who says lliis? It is the Military, the proverbially silent Military, lliey are lettingytm llial tlie UI'Os aie no myth. Today, on Jane 22, 1990. for tilt first lime et>er, on Air Force lias consented la reinal (in /nut) n major I*n1 inn from litis file which is not Sciemr lie tunc *In any case", explains Colonel De Brouwcr, "It would have been quite out of the question for the F16s to have been able to overtake the machine at that low altitude, where the density of the air prevents them from going faster than 1,300 kms p.h. Beyond that speed, the temperature in the compressors of their engines would cause the turbines to explode. So,
T^P ENCLOSURE
ENQUTE SUR LES OVNIS | in English "THE UFO INVESTIGATION"! published in 1990 by Albin Michel, Taris), is categorical, and he makes this firm statement:"At the present time no machine built by man exists that is capable of such performances, especially of -flying at supersonic speeds without making any bang. What degree of confidence can be placed in this proof? l"he same degree of confidence as was given to the first detection of a supernova in 1987 in the Magellanic Clouds Galaxy. I am firmly convinced that this sort of interception of a UFO by radar has already actually happened a great many times over the past thirty years (maybe by means just as sophisticated as those of the F-116 and already in use by all the Air Forces of the world/ T H E H I G H - U P S IN H I E MILITARY ALREADY K N E W WELL E N O U G H THAT T H E UFOs ARE R E A L BUT T H E Y WEREN'T T A L K ING.

and the object, winch has meanwhile been pi ogres sivcly increasing its *|>ccd, and is at this mtfmctyt do nig 280 kins.ph., now changes to 1,000 kuis.p.1 and changes altitude from 3,000 metres to 1,700 metres oil in the s/Ktce of our second! "lista fantastic acceleration corresponds to 40 s It would mean the instantaneous death of any human being on board The limit of what a fighter pilot can stand is about 8 gs.{ "Ilic trajectory followed by the UFO is moreover extremely disconcerting. After moving to an altitude of 1,700 metres, it dives rapidly towards the ground and, at below 200 metres, it esca|>cs simultaneously from the radars of the two F-l6s and also from the radar installations at Glons and at Scmmcrzakc. Over that vast suburban sprawl to the south of Drusscls the ground-scene is in fact just one continuous glitter of sparkling lights, against which the pilots are incapable of distinguishing the slightest thing visually." T H I S CANNOT BE ANYTHING MADE BY MAN."
INTERCEPTION
"Lookr, says Colonel Dc Brouwcr, halting the picture and pointing to the 'diamond'. "At this moment wc have what we call, in our military jargon, a successful interception. " I ask: "What does 'successful intercefrtion* mean in concrete terms'" He replies: "Our fighter 'planes arc equipped with automatically guided missiles. Had the order been . given, all that the pilots would have had to do would have been to release their salvos of missiles and these, piovidcd already with the data furnished by the onboard computers, arc smartly 'horned in' onto the target. (In this present case of course there was no question of their doing that Our aim was simply to identify the intruder.) "The pilots themselves will not have had the necessary time for initiating all this procedure. Ilicir radars will stay locked-on to the target for just six seconds,
"But" I then asked, "What about iluu iamous m F117-A, the American "Stealth aircraft, which many people believe was this UFO?" Answer: T H A T AIRCRAFT WAS ABSOLUTELY NOT DESIGNED FOR ANY SORT OF PENETRATION AT LOW ALTITUDE MOREOVER ITS MINIMUM SPEED IS 278 KMS.P.H-, WHEREAS THE SPEED OF THE UFO WENT DOWNJTO AS LI'ITLE AS 40 KMS.P.H. THE FII7-A DOES N O T POSSESS SUPPORTING JETS THAT WOULD ENABLE IT TO FLY SO SLOWLY A\S THAT. AT T H I S POINT, T H E MINISTER H A N D S ME T H E TELEX MESSAGE FROM T H E MILITARY ATTACH O F T H E U.S, EMBASSY I N BRUSSELS T O T H E BELGIAN AIR F O R C E HEADQUARTERS, A T T E S T .

R e c e n t l y , -tvo f i e r y disks vere sighted over the uranium mines located in "Hhe soutbero part of the Belgian Congo in the E l i e a b e t h v i l l e d i s t r i c t , east of the Luapula Hirer vhlch connects the Mem and Bangveolo l i k e s . The disks glided ID e l e g a n t curves and changed t h e i r p o s i t i o n many c i n e s , so that froa belov they sometimes appeared as p l a t e s , o v e l s , and 6icply l i n e s . Suddenly, both d i s k s hovered in one spot and then took off in a unique zigzag f l i g h t t o the n o r t h e a s t . A penetrating h i s s i n g and buzzing sound vas audible to the onlookers b e l o v . The vhole performance l a s t e d from 10 t o 12 minutes. Cananaader Pi r e of the small E l i s a b e t h v i l l e a i r f i e l d immediately set ou plane. On h i s f i r s t approach he cane v i t b i n about in pursuit v i t h a f i g h t 120 meters of one of the d i s k s . According t o b i s e s t i m a t e s , tbe "saucer" bad a diameter of from 12 t o 15 aeters and vas d i se us- shaped. The inner core r e mained a b s o l u t e l y still. and a kDob coming out from tbe center and several email openings could p l a i n l y be s e e n . Tbe outer rim vas completely veiled in f i r e and must have had an enormous speed of r o t a t i o n . The color of tbe aetal imilar t o that of aluminum. Tbe d i s k s traveled In a precise and l i g h t manner, both v e r t i c a l l y and h o r i z o n t a l l y . Changes in e l e v a t i o n from 600 t o 1,000 a e t e r s could be accompl i s h e d in a f e v seconds; the disks often shot dovn t o v i t h i n 20 aeters of tbe t r e e t o p s .

MEMORANDUM FOR: SUBJECT : Actin D ectoi, Cen* a] InteJ enc Unident tied Fly | objects Repo? ed on 20 September 1957
1 As reported by components of the US Air Defense Command, an unidentified flying object (UFO) was tracked by jdars on a relatively straight course from the eastern tip o lona Island to vicinity of Buffalo. The object was reportedly moving w< ard at an altitude 01 50,000 feet and speed of 2,000 kts. "Jammino" was reported by several radars in this vicinity and westward as as Chicago. In a subsequent brieiing for representatives o > e IAC, i the US Air Force reported that the ori mal reports had been de aded somewhat by information that: (a) there was an 11 minute break . n the track; (b) weather conditions in the area were o 1 t >e whuh have in the past produced false radar pips and electroni interference; (c) B-47's of SAC were in the area neai Chicago on an ECM training fliqht. The ADC has not completed it investigation of this incident, but in any event it now seems clear that the phenomena reported west of Buffalo were not related to the UFO. 2. We have no intelligence on Soviet activities (e , lonorange air, submarine, or merchant shipping operations) wh h can : e > related specifically to this reported event w believe it uni ely that a Soviet aircraft could conduct a mission at this speed and altitude and return to Bloc territory. Howevei we adit the US with the capability to have a submarine-launched ?e- > mieeile e of low supersonic [illegible] and a rano about S 1 m. have no spec a evidence of the existence of such a r te i le. 3. We have examined possible Soviet motives laun a one-way vehicle on an operation ovei the US, and oni 1er at there would be little motivation at me exce poss 1 I a psy ical or retaliate y motive, which we believe Le ma i a onereconnaissance operations are larqely ruled out 1 he I e hood c that the results would be of small value, and the risk 1 ompromiee would be ve great.

4. We conclude, therefore, that it is highly improbable that a Soviet operation is responsible for the UFO reports of 20 September. 5. Considering the facts that the ADC Investigation is incomplete, and that weather phenomena are increasingly likely explanations of the original reports, we recommend that no IAC meeting be called on this subject at this time.
