Belgian UFO Wave

From November 1989 to April 1990, thousands of witnesses reported large triangular craft over Belgium. The Belgian Air Force scrambled F-16 fighters that achieved radar lock on objects demonstrating impossible acceleration — from 150 to 1,100 knots instantly while dropping from 9,000 to 5,000 feet in seconds. The Belgian Air Force held an unprecedented press conference acknowledging they could not explain the sightings.

Belgian Wave — F-16 Radar Lock Data

On the night of March 30-31, 1990, Belgian Air Force F-16s scrambled to intercept triangular UAP detected on radar and observed by thousands of citizens. F-16 radar recorded the object accelerating from 280 km/h to 1,800 km/h in seconds, dropping from 3,000m to 1,000m in one second (40G maneuver). Major General De Brouwer held an unprecedented public press conference presenting the radar data. Belgium's government investigated openly — the opposite of US secrecy.
