A newly revealed document from the Brazilian Air Force archives details a coordinated response to unidentified aerial phenomena observed in Brazilian skies on the night of May 19, 1986-the same event detailed in other official files now declassified by the government.
This document provides new perspectives, focusing heavily on the real-time experiences of pilots, radar operators, and military decision-makers during the incident.
The document confirms that at least 21 separate aerial anomalies were detected and monitored across multiple radar installations.
The objects were described as fast-moving, luminous, and intelligently reactive to intercept attempts.
"They appeared and disappeared suddenly, moved at high speed, and maneuvered in ways inconsistent with any known aircraft."
🎯 Radar Locks and Visual Sightings
The report emphasizes that the anomalies weren’t fleeting or vague.
Fighter aircraft were scrambled, and radar locks were achieved multiple times, confirming the physical presence of objects in the airspace.
Key observations included:
-
Simultaneous radar and visual confirmation
-
Objects flying in non-linear trajectories
-
Sudden disappearance from radar, followed by immediate reappearance elsewhere
-
Response to interceptor approach, including evasive action
"We were able to lock on several times, but the targets maneuvered out of range or vanished entirely."
🧭 Testimony from the Cockpit
Pilot reports included direct descriptions of the objects. One fighter pilot recorded seeing a white orb-like object hovering, then accelerating at impossible speed.
Another reported chasing an object that abruptly changed direction and altitude without deceleration.
The pilots were fully prepared to engage, but the phenomena never presented a threat-nor did they behave like conventional aircraft.
"It was like nothing I’ve ever seen before. I had visual and radar confirmation, but couldn’t catch it."
📡 Nationwide Monitoring
The document details that Brazil’s military high command was kept informed in real-time, and that radar centers across the country maintained communication.
Civilian air traffic control also reported interference and anomalous readings.
This points to a rare level of national-level military coordination triggered by an event that remains officially unexplained to this day.
"The incident was considered significant enough to be documented across multiple military channels."
🧾 No Attempt to Dismiss
Unlike many Cold War-era UAP incidents worldwide, this Brazilian report does not attempt to downplay or dismiss the encounter.
It explicitly concludes that the observed phenomena remain unidentified and worthy of continued investigation.
The level of detail, the number of corroborating sources, and the high rank of those involved all lend weight to the significance of the report.
"The phenomenon was real, physical, and remains unexplained."
