UFO Files: Russian Roswell (2005)

The incident that took place over Soviet Union’s most secret military base,  ‘Kapustin Yar‘ in 1948, remains an enigma, a seminole event that UFO researchers still call: ‘Russia’s Roswell‘ … The History Channels ‘UFO Files’ documentary series delves closer into this phenomenon.

“In 1948, less than a year after the famed Roswell Incident, the base’s radar operators picked up an unidentified object. At the same time, a fighter pilot flying close to the base had a visual sighting of a silver, cigar-shaped object. Reporting that he was being blinded by rays from the UFO, the pilot was ordered to engage with it and, after a three minute dogfight, a missile successfully brought down the object. It seems that the UFO fired some sort of energy weapon at the MiG and both craft crashed to the ground. ” rolfwaeber.com
