RAF Tornado Jets Overtaken by UFO Over the North Sea
On November 5, 1990, multiple RAF Tornado GR1 fast jets flying over the North Sea were overtaken by an unidentified aerial object travelling at a velocity significantly exceeding their own.
Narration
At Mach 0.8 over the North Sea, something luminous appeared and closed fast.
November 5, 1990 — open North Sea airspace, night, vast and featureless.
Multiple RAF Tornado GR1 crews independently tracked the luminous object accelerating away.
The object crossed to 12 o'clock and accelerated beyond Mach 0.8, leaving Tornados behind.
The MoD UFO desk investigator reviewed classified pilot reports confirming the North Sea overtaking.
No contrail, no exhaust, no explanation — only darkness where the luminous object had been.
