Key moments
- 0:32 Wilfried De Brouwer: De Brouwer says they first suspected weather or electromagnetic interference, but at certain moments could match visual observations with a radar return.
- 1:37 Wilfried De Brouwer: The night of 30–31 March 1990: a radar contact and a ground sighting confirmed by police, so two F-16s were sent up.
- 2:20 Wilfried De Brouwer: He says the F-16 lock-ons gave speeds varying from 150 to 990 knots, with accelerations that would be impossible for a human pilot.
- 2:42 Wilfried De Brouwer: He says visual witnesses described a machine that hovered silently at low altitude, beyond current technology.

0:10 perhaps the most convincing evidence for ufos can be found in brussels of all places for a period of about two years the whole country was affected by a wave of sightings they'd been seen by witnesses the police and by local radar the belgian army was forced to take the claim seriously they allowed their f-16 fighter aircraft to be involved in trying to intercept these ufos they had the full backing of the chief of the belgian air staff colonel de bruyne initially uh we thought that some of these observations were caused by atmospheric interference such as weather conditions or electromagnetic interference but later on we found out that at certain moments indeed we could uh relate visual observation with one observation on the radar and of course then we said well
1:10 to have a confirmation it may be very useful to have an additional observation from an aircraft the aircraft were deployed as part of a routine training program most times nothing was seen except on one particular night the night 30 and 34 we had an observation on the radar and in addition a visual observation on the ground confirmed by the police we decided to send two airplanes in the around midnight this video of the f-16s radar track of the object showed the performance of a vehicle of a totally unknown origin the air force are at a complete loss to explain their findings a press conference was called what these
2:14 detected was well outside the normal flying envelope of an airplane sometimes they had what we call lock-ons which gave a parameters varying from speeds between 150 knots still 990 knots an acceleration which occurred in a few the americans denied it was a secret spy plane so could it have been the first official contact with an alien craft this speech would be impossible to to for a human being that's a first point the second point is the visual observations always describe a system a machine which and hovers above the surface at quite a low altitude without making any noise
3:15 with the current technology that would be so far the belgian authorities have refused to announce any official conclusion to subsequent investigations could it be the aurora is it likely a ufo could have come from a far away after all it took us three days just to get to the moon
