CHILLING new UFO footage shows a US warship facing off with two “Tic Tac” aircraft as four mysterious objects were spotted darting around the destroyer.
The objects are captured taking off in a “sychronized” flight off the coast of southern California – stunning sailors aboard the USS Jackson who claim they saw four in total.
New bombshell footage shows the unbelievable moment two of the UFOs burst from the ocean during the February 2023 incident.
Their shape resembles a 2004 sighting of a Tic Tac shaped UFO in the same waters, with the incident investigated by a top secret government program.
One of the stunned sailors told News 8 Now: “All we witnessed was all four of them.
“All in synchronous, jetting into the abyss.
“All four, all timed together and all left. And we were like holy s***.
“The second they left, maybe three, four seconds pass, I run to my station and I look at my radar, they're all off radar. That's it, they all zoomed off.
“But it's clear that they're in communication with one another and synchronized like three, two, one countdown. Let's all go. I think unless there's some level of like one entity controlling all four and then they all leave at the same time.”
And former defense department analyst Marik Von Rennenkampff added fuel to the UFO fire after analyzing flight data from the exact time and location of the sighting – concluding there were no US aircraft in the area.
He said: “I don’t think it’s ours. I suspect there are better places for us to showcase that kind of equipment to unwitting sailors.
“That just doesn’t make sense.”
The latest incident with the chilling footage bares similarities to the infamous Nimitz incident a whopping two decades prior.
Several pilots encountered the unknown, flying object as it sped over the pacific near Mexico on November 14, 2004.
Pilot David Fravor was one of four people in two fighter jets sent to monitor the object after it was spotted by his bosses on board the USS Nimitz.
He toldCNNat the time that they came across a disturbance above the water that was causing the sea to foam and “a white object, oblong, pointing north”.
He added: “It had no wings. So you think, ‘okay, it's a helicopter', but there's no rotor wash in the water, there's no rotors and when helicopters move from side-to-side they're kind of slow then pick up speed going the other way.
“This was extremely abrupt – like a ping pong ball bouncing off a wall. It would hit and go the other way and change directions at will.
“Then the ability to hover over the water then start a vertical climb from zero up to about 12,000ft and then accelerate in less than two seconds and disappear is something that I've never seen in my life.”
When asked about those who may be sceptical of the claim, he replied:“It's easy to doubt what we can't explain and this isn't the first account of people seeing a UFO.
“In this situation you're talking about four people, all eyeballs on, ranging in experience from relatively new in a fleet squadron… to myself who had over 16 years of flying.”
And fellow F-18 pilot Lietenant Chad Underwood flew out and caught the object on video which was published by the New York Times in 2017.
This sparked a mixture of uproar and intrigue on how much the government knows of UFOs.
At the time, the sighting didn't get looked into on a large scale – until the Defense Intelligence Agency looked into it in 2008.
Both Fravor and Underwood expressed how they couldn't believe the similarities between the infamous Nimitz incident and the latest sighting – therefore questioning whether the UFOs were returning or never left at all.
