A UFO encounter witnessed by military pilots. Radar anomalies. Government cover-ups. One night in Tehran changed everything.

On September 19, 1976, the skies over Tehran, Iran, became the stage for one of the most credible and chilling UFO incidents in modern history. When Iranian Air Force pilots engaged a luminous object with capabilities far beyond any known aircraft—only to experience sudden weapon failures and radar interference—the event left both the military and the public with more questions than answers.

The Tehran UFO Incident (1976) is a meticulously researched, deeply engaging investigation into that extraordinary night. Drawing from firsthand pilot testimonies, military documentation, psychological analysis, and the geopolitical tension of the Cold War era, this book examines the incident's far-reaching implications. Was this merely a technical glitch, an atmospheric anomaly—or something else entirely?

Whether you're a seasoned ufologist or new to the topic, this compelling case study reveals:

The minute-by-minute timeline of the incident

Eyewitness accounts from Iranian fighter pilots and radar operators

The military's scramble, engagement attempts, and mysterious equipment failures

Comparisons with other global UFO cases, like the Phoenix Lights and Rendlesham Forest

The role of media, secrecy, and cultural narratives in shaping public perception

Join the investigation into one of the most documented and enigmatic UFO encounters ever recorded—an event that even decades later, defies explanation.
