Unidentified UFO over Motobu Peninsula in 1950

Summary

In March 1950, a radar operator on the Motobu Peninsula in Okinawa recorded an unidentified object that appeared suddenly at 13,500 feet. The object remained stationary for 10 minutes before moving rapidly southwest at an estimated speed of 507 RPM. The operator, considered highly reliable, could not track the object beyond a point over a mountain. Despite other radars being operational in the area, none detected the object, adding mystery to the incident.

The report concluded that the object was not a conventional aircraft and could not be explained by weather or technical malfunctions. The only available evidence was the radar record, with no photos or physical proof. This case, classified for decades, stands out for its precise data and the credibility of the witness, making it one of the most intriguing UFO reports in history.
