UFO in Drôme 2012, two lights and fighter jets

Summary

On July 5, 2012, a witness and his wife heard the sound of jet planes. The witness went outside and saw two white lights followed by three fighter jets. The lights disappeared behind the landscape. Other witnesses confirmed the planes' passage. One witness filed a report with the gendarmerie. The investigation concluded it was likely the navigation lights of fighter jets, observed under poor conditions. The testimony was quick, precise, and consistent, though there were no photos. The confusion arose because the planes' landing lights were possibly off during the initial approach. The GEIPAN classified the case as "B", attributing it to a probable confusion with military aircraft lights.
