This is the story about Yugoslav air-force pilots who were allowed to act aggressively against any unidentified object that flies above 3,000 meters. Before engaging these "objects", they would be required to say only one word "wolf".
In the night (can't find the exact date, could be found with a little bit of digging up) of 1987, a pilot instructor Dragutin Prepust was performing a routine flying route above Western Adriatic Sea with his student, when, around midnight, above small area called Bakanjci, the student spoke to pilot Prepust saying "Comrade, what's that, on our left?" - Pilot Prepust, seeing the orange-like ellipse which moved slowly towards them. In order to avoid a potential crash, they take their plain downwards, when the orange shape makes quick (around 900km/h Prepust later said) maneuvers over the sky. They were at the height of over 3,000 meters. Pilot Dragutin Prepust contacted the air control in Zagreb - they told him "Nobody else is on the radar. You are alone." Prepust kept insisting, and flight control iz Ljubljana was contacted next, only for them to give the same confirmation. Prepust was determined to contact military in Belgrade, their radars revealed the same thing, Prepust and his student were all alone above Western Adriatic Sea.
Afterwards, Prepust ordered his student not to report anything they saw, and that it was nothing more than an illusion of some kind. Unknown to Prepust, military agents were already waiting on the ground of the airport, who then separated them, demanding both of them to write an official report about what they saw. Later on, Prepust was told by his experienced colleagues that there was no pilot with over 200 hours who had not witnessed something similar.
It's the year 1975, few days after the New Year, Zvonko Jurjevic, then a lieutenant colonel, remembers several cases of UFO's appearing above Yugoslavia. While on their routine nightly flights, pilots kept reporting a ball which produced light, light which changed in color, from white to purple. For several days, Yugoslav pilots had tried capturing or downing those UFO's, without success. lieutenant colonel Jurjevic describes the UFO he personally followed above Montenegro (then a republic of Yugoslavia). Jurjevic goes on to say that the UFO flew away from him, towards Dubrovnik, at the speed of app. 9,000km/h.
For a month this chase of cat and mouse would go on, until Yugoslav Airforce decided to set a trap for UFO's, allowing twelve of their planes "Seagull (Galeb)" to fly, and as soon as they spot UFO's, go back down, only so MIG-21's can try and down UFO's.
On their first attempt, after 20 minutes of flight, all twelve crews of Seagull reported seeing a UFO, above Cetinje and Danilovgrad (Montenegro). Pilots Mamic and Zindarcic were sent with their MIG-21's to down a UFO.
Both Mamic and Zindarcic confirmed the sighting of UFO, and were speeding up to catch it. For the first time, UFO was spotted on the radar set on Prevlaka (near Dubrovnik). No matter how much faster MIG's were trying to go, they were not shortening the distance between them and the UFO, which was now going for the open sea. It's important to note that sometimes radar picked up UFO's, sometimes they didn't. At one point, seen on radar, and testified by both Mamic and Zindaric, the UFO suddenly disappeared, and instead of being in front of them, was on their tail. Then disappearing.
Lieutenant colonel Jurjevic goes on to say that secret service of Yugoslavia kept telling them there were no UFO's, that they do not exist, and that they were being spied on by a "enemy country". Of course, pilots were not allowed to publicly discuss these topics. Only after Yugoslavia was no more, destroyed in a bloody and idiotic civil war, these pilots came out and said what they saw. From simple military staff, up to the highest ranks of airforce.
I apologize for not offering any documented backing for this story. I'm lacking time, but I wanted to make a quick post. I'll definitely post more about this in the next couple of days, backed by documentation.
