Description

First of all i want to say that i was a believer in this case before i realised the year 1965 and in the height of the cold war.

This was pretty much in the pinnacle years of the cold war with the Soviet union and warhead delivery systems and rocketry in general were the pinnacle of weapons high tech.

Humanity had not even travelled to the moon in 1965 and no one had never seen anything like this so this was the cutting edge technology during that time and top secret.

The military personel who arrived at the scene was wearing radationg suits and geiger counters so my best guess is that this warhead was a live test. (its not the first time US lost a live nuke not to be found to this day)

this stuff is super secret to this day. These re-entry vehicles can manouvre while entering the atmosphere and thats exactly what the witnesses said also

heres a link for a deeper dive in this if anyones interested.
