The Romanian Military went on national TV to report that at an altitude of 6,300 meters/ 3.91464 miles and a speed of 500 mph (800 km/h) their airplane was hit by an object.

All assumptions that could provide a scientific explanation of chance were canceled. Romanian Defense Ministry officials have ruled out all normal types of collision such as bird strikes, ice or small meteorites. Rocket launches and ground artillery shots were also ruled out as possible explanations for the incident.

Birds don’t to fly at the height of 20,700 feet (6,300 meters), and the body of the plane didn’t have any trace of organic matter. The sky was clear with no conditions for water to freeze. Astronomical data confirms no entry of bodies such as meteorites were in the air that day.

There were no civilian flights at any hour that at about 20 miles (30 kilometers) from Gherla where the fighter jet was, no exercises with artillery cannons or missiles, no incidents reported to police on missile launching craft and no weapon had been launched or weather balloons.

The National Institute of Criminalistica stated that the hardness of the object that struck the aircraft was greater than the organic glass that was hit.

The object that struck the plane had a motion of rotating around its own axe, with a trajectory towards the aircraft, but rejected the assumption that the analysis had been talking about a projectile.

“We can definitely say what this thing was not, but we cannot say what it was.” Chief investigator Commander Nicolae Grigorie said.

The impact on a training flight above Transylvania took merely 67 milliseconds.

Security and onboard instruments including an on-board camera captured 4 UFO’s which could not be made out on video due to the speed and the impact.

The Pilot announced that he and 1 other airplane were doing a routine exercise about 4 miles (6 kilometers) away from Gherla, Romania when this object along with 4 others — only 1 hit the plane — came from under the clouds and hit his airplane. He was forced to abort mission and land immediately due to his wing and cabin damage.

Although the risk of crash seemed imminent when pilot Marin Mitrica was slightly injured, he managed to return safely to base unit Campia Turzii to land the plane.

Baffled defense chiefs have now passed the UFO incident on to the Security Committee of European Air Forces for investigation.

A similar incident happened in the United States in 1948 when Captain Mantell, of the Kentucky Air National Guard was sent to intercept a UFO that was in U.S. airspace, and was shot down by the UFO.

The Romanian military released a video captured by the plane’s in-flight camera as it was flying above Transylvania the night of October 30th.
