A ‘disc-shaped UFO’ disabled a US nuclear missile over the Pacific during a routine test, according to multiple military whistleblowers.
The craft allegedly circled the unarmed dummy warhead as it travelled at several thousand miles per hour, before firing four beams of light at the missile.
It is not known at what altitude the altercation is said to have occurred.
Retired US Air Force officers Lieutenant Bob Jacobs and Major Florenze Mansmann are among the two who claim the event took place, and say they have seen footage of the event, which was captured on September 15, 1964.
However, the video has since gone missing.
Extraordinary allegations about the encounter have been swirling for years, but are now being investigated by author Robert Hastings, whose books include UFOs and Nukes: The Secret Link Revealed.
Lt Jacobs and Maj Mansmann were part of the team charged with filming the test from a military telescopic photography site in Big Sur, California, and while doing so, inadvertently captured the altercation.
They allege that after a ‘highly-restricted’ screening of the footage, two plain-clothed CIA officers confiscated the tape.
Lt Jacobs said that at the time Maj Mansmann had told him ‘To not to talk about it’, and said ‘it had never happened’.
