Luda, China: Navy Garrison Observes Gold Oval Object, Fleet Radar and Communications Fail
In early 1968, at the Chinese Navy garrison at Luda (Liaoning province), four artillerymen observed a luminous gold, oval-shaped object flying at low altitude. Before it was out of sight, all of the fleet's radar systems and communications failed. The fleet commander put every ship on high alert. A coastguard patrol on the south coast fired on it with automatic weapons to no avail.
Background
At the Chinese Navy garrison at Luda, in the northern province of Liaoning, four artillerymen observed a luminous gold, oval-shaped object flying at a low altitude and leaving a thin trail. Soon it proceeded to climb steeply, but before it was out of sight, all of the fleet's radar systems and communications failed.
The fleet commander put every ship on high alert and ordered the sailors to prepare for combat. Half an hour went by before everything returned to normal. Later it was learned that a two-man coastguard patrol saw the UFO land along the south coast. They fired on it with an automatic rifle and a machine gun but to no avail.
