This case is notable, since the UFO incident report was officially disclosed by the Chinese Military.

NOTE: UFO Roundup and Agence France Presse reported on this UFO incident in November 1998. The Chinese Air Force jet
fighter pilot chased 1 UFO (not 2, as reported here earlier), according to the articles (misunderstanding due to language differences between English and Chinese). The crew of the J-6 jet fighter consisted of a pilot and a radar officer. According to the UFO Roundup article, the UFO disappeared before two more modern Chinese jet fighters could arrive in the area. The UFO was sighted by 140 people at the Air Force Base. And the UFO was tracked by radar.
