UFO Magazine Article:
“Documento do COMDABRA mostra
quase colisão entre UFO e aviões”
(“COMDABRA document shows near
collision between UFO and airplanes”)


By Thiago Luiz Ticchetti, 1 June 2015
(Revista UFO (Brazilian UFO Magazine), Campo Grande, Brazil)

The UFO incident occurred over Quixadá, Ceará, Brazil, on
24 January 2014, at 12:10 p.m., according to the article.

COMDABRA is the acronym for Comando de Defesa Aeroespacial Brasileiro (Brazilian Aerospace Defense Command).

COMDABRA is responsible for receiving and cataloging the
occurrences of UFO incidents, according to the official (Brazilian
Air Force) decree, named Portaria (Ordinance) 551/GC3 (dated
9 August 2010), Brazilian UFO researcher A. J. Gevaerd reported
in a UFO UpDates (Toronto, Canada) mailing list post on 10 August
2010 (ufoupdateslist.com).

Wikipedia article: “Departamento de Controle do Espaço Aéreo”:


English translation of the Wikipedia article: “Department of Airspace Control”:

“The Department of Airspace Control ( DECEA ) is a military governmental entity of the Brazilian Air Force Command, which in turn reports to the Ministry of Defense. Its mission is to manage the operation of traffic services in Brazil's sovereign airspace, as well as to coordinate their defense with COMDABRA ( Aerospace Defense Command ).


Brazilian Airspace

Responsible flight information regions of Brazil.
The airspace under the responsibility of the country extends beyond its borders. It surpasses the area over its territory and reaches a significant part of the Atlantic Ocean, making a total of 22 million km2, on land and sea, agreed in international treaties.

In other words, in Brazil, air control assumes gigantic proportions, which makes it a strategic and national security task, entrusted by law to one of the Armed Forces.

The Department of Airspace Control (DECEA) is the organization of the Air Force Command responsible for controlling this area. It brings together human resources, equipment, accessories and infrastructure with the mission of providing the safety and fluidity of the region's flights.

Thus, the evolution of air traffic flow in the national airspace is controlled daily by four major operational bases, subordinate to DECEA: the integrated air defense and air traffic control centers, also known as CINDACTA.

They act on airspace subdivisions called Flight Information Region, or FIR, according to official nomenclature. In Brazil, there are five FIRs, on which four CINDACTAs operate:

CINDACTA I (Brasília-DF) Responsible for the Brasília FIR, which covers the central region of Brazil.

CINDACTA II (Curitiba-PR) Responsible for the Curitiba FIR, which covers the south and part of south-central Brazil.

CINDACTA III (Recife-PE) Responsible for the Recife and Atlantic FIR, covering the Northeast and the Atlantic Area

CINDACTA IV (Manaus-AM) Responsible for the Manaus FIR, which extends over much of the Amazon region.

At the same time, CINDACTAs bring together civil air traffic control and military air defense operations. A successful integration solution that has been recommended by the International Civil Aviation Organization (UN activity regulator) to the other signatory countries, as a model of economy of means and operational safety.

The Cindactas are also added by the São Paulo Regional Flight Protection Service (SRPV-SP), which is responsible for controlling the highest flow density traffic in the country, along the São Paulo and Rio de Janeiro air terminals.

Finally, to ensure a balance between capacity and demand at aerodromes and control sectors, there is yet another DECEA unit, the Air Navigation Management Center (CGNA).

Created from the necessity of air flow ordering in order to speed it up where there is opportunity or need, the CGNA operates under a collaborative decision logic, in which representatives of airlines, airport administrators, regulatory organizations, among others, are participants. and they are exposing information daily and sharing responsibilities in order to join forces in the name of more effective decisions.

The CGNA is a kind of operational manager of the country's flight flows, where all air movements are monitored 24 hours a day, in order to enable air circulation, ensuring the effectiveness and operational safety of air transport.”

UFO TV Report:
“Fantástico” TV Report


14 April 1991
(TV Globo, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil)

TV Globo reports about a UFO incident that was registered on CINDACTA radar.


Wikipedia article: “CINDACTA”:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/CINDACTA

Quote from the Wikipedia article:
“The air traffic control centers of Brazil are known by the acronym CINDACTA, or Centro Integrado de Defesa Aérea e Controle de Tráfego Aéreo (Integrated Air Traffic Control and Air Defense Center). Four CINDACTAs are in operation, located in four different cities and each responsible for different regions of Brazil’s airspace.

The use of military air traffic controllers for civilian traffic is not unusual, but has been deprecated in most developed countries. In the US, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) operates a wholly parallel system with that of the US Air Force and NORAD. This is also the case of Eurocontrol and each of its member nations’ air defense systems. Brazil’s use of an integrated command poses some unique challenges to the government. As members of the military, controllers are not allowed to form unions (such as the case of NATCA in the US) or to strike.”

(“The Official Night of the UFOs in Brazil,

(Revista UFO (Brazilian UFO Magazine), Campo Grande, Brazil)

On 19 May 1986, the CINDACTA I radar centre (the Integrated Air Traffic Control and Air Defence Centre in Brasilia) tracked 21 UFOs over South East Brazil (see the Revista UFO map).

When it comes to this case, we see that different sources give different information about how many fighter jets were ordered scrambled.

Portal Fenomenum’s report (which includes government documents) (fenomenum.com.br) on the case informs us that the Brazilian Air Force  sent up two F-5E Tiger II and two Dassault Mirage III  fighter jets to pursue thirteen UFOs. This article corroborates that information. This article corroborates that information.

This UFO case is called the “Official Night of the UFOs.”
