Adding to the growing list of UFO encounters, a retired Japanese fighter pilot has come forward with his own extraordinary experience.
Mamoru Sato, who served as the Air Defense Force Base Commander and boasts a distinguished career spanning 34 years, shares a moving story from the skies over Japan.
During what should have been standard training at Matsushima Air Base, a trainee pilot reported a startling sight: a cigar-shaped object standing still in the sky.
This observation was confirmed by the pilot in the front seat, while the instructor in the back seat was unaware of the phenomenon.
The incident escalated when the aircraft began to malfunction in a way that was not typical of standard mechanical problems: no warning lights, no usual indicators. The pilot had difficulty with the controls and found it almost impossible to steer.
Then the UFO disappeared, as suddenly as it had appeared, and the plane’s controls returned to normal.
However, the mystery deepened when the UFO appeared a second time as the pilot attempted to land. This time the control issues surfaced again, and even the previously skeptical instructor witnessed the UFO, confirming the trainee’s original report.
