Fighter Jets Lost and Rediscovered Octagon UFO

About this video

Max breaks down the February 2023 incident where F-15s were scrambled to intercept an unidentified object over Montana that later reappeared over Wisconsin and was shot down by F-16s over Lake Huron. He explains NORAD detection procedures, the challenges pilots faced without data link technology in Montana, and walks through the timeline and tactical considerations of both intercept attempts. Max analyzes the object’s estimated speed and propulsion capabilities based on its flight path.

Key takeaways

• NORAD adjusted radar technology after the Chinese spy balloon to detect non-traditional threats; the Montana object wasn’t squawking proper identification codes
• F-15 pilots over Montana faced challenges including poor lighting conditions and lack of data link to transmit ground radar into their cockpits
• Max estimates the object traveled roughly 200 miles in six hours, suggesting it had propulsion capability beyond just wind, despite no visible exhaust
