NAVY SAILORS REPORT SYNCHRONIZED UFO SIGHTING OFF CALIFORNIA COAST

A group of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) observed by Navy sailors off the coast of California last year has ignited intrigue and debate. Witnesses reported seeing the oddly-shaped aircraft emerge from the Pacific Ocean before ascending and moving in a synchronized formation, according to JEREMY CORBELL, co-host of the *Weaponized* podcast, who spoke to Fox 11.

CORBELL described the incident as extraordinary, stating, “This is a machine that is able to outpace, outmaneuver, and outperform anything that we know of that’s been made by technology and terrestrial nations.” The encounter reportedly occurred aboard the USS Jackson, with sailors witnessing the event before the objects appeared on the ship’s radar.

Footage of the incident, recorded by the Navy warship and obtained by CORBELL, shows four aircraft grouping together before accelerating in unison. “Everybody on the ship knew they were seeing something extraordinary,” CORBELL said. “So obviously people thought it was important to document, and then finally witnesses came forward.”

The objects’ lack of wings or tails has raised questions about their flight capabilities. Despite this, CORBELL emphasized that he does not believe the objects are a threat or operated by a foreign adversary. “I’d rather these things be from another planet than an adversarial nation, because if it was an adversarial nation then their ability to weaponize that technology would be unprecedented,” he said. “Luckily, we don’t see a fingerprint for that.”

However, the Pentagon has disputed the existence of any official record of the sighting. “[The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office] has no record of this alleged UAP incident,” a Pentagon spokesperson told Fox News Digital in a statement.

The sighting bears striking similarities to the infamous 2004 “Tic Tac” UFO incident involving the USS Nimitz off Southern California. That event gained national attention in 2017, leading to revelations about the Department of Defense’s previously undisclosed UFO research programs. In 2020, the Pentagon released three unclassified Navy videos from 2004 and 2015, categorizing the observed aerial phenomena as “unidentified.”

In related developments, DR. JON KOSLOSKI, director of the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office, testified to Congress last year that analysis of a 2016 UFO sighting by the USS Theodore Roosevelt revealed the object was not anomalous but a trick of perspective known as parallax. “Through a very careful geospatial intelligence analysis and using trigonometry, we assess with high confidence that the object is not actually close to the water, but is rather closer to 13,000 feet,” KOSLOSKI said.

CORBELL stressed that the UFO phenomenon is not new and urged for continued investigation. “This UFO phenomenon has been here for a long time. This is not something new; it’s nothing to worry about,” he said. “It is something that we need to face head on, and that’s what Congress is trying to do – get people to get past the stigma so we can know and understand what is this technology, who is operating it, and what is the intent.”
