“Alejandro Rojas with UFO Updates, Guest and witness
to the USS Nimitz TIC-TAC UFO Incident, Kevin Day, USN ret./M.Ed for an in
depth discussion on what happened off the coast of San Diego in 2004 involving
the USS NIMITZ & USS PRINCETON.
KEVIN DAY is a retired United States Navy Senior Chief
Petty Officer. A former Operations Specialist and TOPGUN Air Intercept
Controller with more than 20 years experience in Strike Group air defense
including war-time operations.
An expert operator of the highly advanced SPY-1 radar
system with years of service onboard AEGIS equipped ships including the USS
VINCENNES, USS CHOSIN, and USS PRINCETON. Kevin has logged hundreds of
air-to-air intercepts of suspect aircraft in both training and war-time
operations. It was Kevin’s team in USS PRINCETON’s Combat Information
Center that discovered
the fleets of anomalous air contacts, now known as the TIC TAC UFOs, in the
sky’s [sic] above the Southern California
Operating Area in November 2004. Because the unidentified air contacts were in
too close proximity to the NIMITZ Strike Group while they were conducting
at-sea training exercises and represented a potential hazard to safe flight
operations, Kevin recommended investigating the contacts with a pair of F/A 18
Super Hornets launched from the USS NIMITZ.
The NIMITZ Strike Group’s Air Defense Commander
concurred and Kevin’s team conducted the now famous intercept. Interestingly,
it was to become Kevin’s very last tactical intercept. It was also Kevin’s very
last underway in the Navy prior to his retirement.”
The 14 November 2004 USS Nimitz Carrier Strike Group
11 UFO incident occurred about a hundred miles south west of San Diego , California .
To my knowledge, four U.S. Navy personnel, Kevin M. Day,
David Fravor, P. J. Hughes and Jim Slaight, have talked about the UFO incident
on the Internet.
Kevin M. Day was a radar operator aboard the USS
Princeton.
David Fravor, who chased the UFO (resembled a white
Tic Tac), was flying his F/A-18F
Super Hornet jet fighter.
At the time of the UFO incident, Fravor was the
commanding officer of the VFA-41 Black Aces, a U.S. Navy strike fighter
squadron.
P. J. Hughes was an aviation technician aboard the USS
Nimitz.
Lieutenant Commander (later Commander) Jim Slaight was
the pilot of the second F/A-18F
Super Hornet jet fighter.
