U.S. Navy pilots encountered a white, oblong object exhibiting extreme acceleration, abrupt direction changes, and no visible propulsion.
During training exercises with the USS Nimitz Carrier Strike Group, fighter pilots were directed to investigate radar anomalies. They observed a smooth, white, tic-tac-shaped object hovering and maneuvering in ways that defied known aerodynamic capabilities. The object reportedly dropped from high altitude to sea level in seconds and then accelerated out of range without sonic boom.
