Description

It was a hot summer day in 1977. The fighter pilot Sven Hjalmarsson is in his plane, a J35F Draken, on a regular flight exercise between Öland and Gotland. He receives an order from the battle command to identify an unknown object that appeared on the radar.

When he receives orders from the battle command to identify an unknown object that appeared on the radar. Sven chose not to say anything about this UFO incident to any outsider.

A colleague at F21 in Luleå, where he worked in 1999, persuaded Sven to report what he had seen. Sven talks about his encounter with the UFO.

He then flew a J35. It is a Swedish fighter aircraft called “Draken.”

“It was a routine exercise. So I was ordered to identify an unknown object.”

The radar tower gave an approximate height and distance to the unknown object.

"And when I got within range so that my radar could get a lock on this unidentified object. It was basically stationary, and it had a speed below 100 km / h".

According to the radar on the J35 Draken.

"I flew at Mach 0.9 the whole approach to the object. At approximately 1000 meters altitude. When I entered a distance of 10 km, the object began to accelerate straight up. So I turned on my afterburner and tried to get to the UFO. I got as close as possible to the object between six and eight km. When I passed 10,000 meters, I basically had a 70-degree climb. And then it disappeared out of radar range, straight into space."

Did the Swedish fighter pilot see a tic-tac? Can anything produced 1977 go from being stationary to accelerating at such an incredible speed straight up into space?

Sven died in 2000 in an accident at the Kebnekaise during a rescue operation when he flew a rescue helicopter.

He told his story to a UFO organization called “UFO-Sweden” It was the only interview he did.
