That equates to around 360 UFOs officially tracked by radar each year.
.
And as many as 75 - 15 EACH YEAR - have been intercepted as a result, according to information released by the North American Aerospace Defense Command (NORAD).

Candian UFO expert Victor Viggiani requested information on the tracking and intercepting of UFOs by NORAD after obtaining secret documents which detailed a case of jets being scramble to "three UFOs".

I think that this may be another bit of incremental disclosure. We will see.
.
I wonder how many naysayers will respect this info at all.
.
I think it is fairly straightforward and official.
.
That many radar trackings are highly unlikely to be "swamp gas!!!" LOL.
.
However, I do NOT underestimate the capacity of naysayers to think up new rationalizations to trash whatever evidence.
.
But I am curious what the ['u]fair-minded skeptics will think of this info.

Can I be the first one to come and say Daily Express...ergo fake and a lie? Can I?
Intercepts are when NORAD scrambles a pair of fighters, which are on alert at sites around the US, to locate and attempt to identify the unknown object.

Details for the 15 intercepts a year would be the interesting information - what were those unidentifiable entities on close up inspection?

Sure. It's your turn. Nobody is saying they are fake. It's just that tracking an unknown object does not equate to aliens. They're just unknown objects. The only real mystery here is why people insist on invoking "aliens" every time something unknown appears in the sky. And in terms of being paragons of journalistic integrity, the Express rates right up there with the National Inquirer.

A UFO is a UFO. An object, unidentified, that is flying.
A UFO does not automatically mean "awiens."
I don't know how this can be construed as incremental disclosure. Somebody got around to asking a question, and the question was answered. Doesn't appear anybody made much of an effort to hide this information, they just didn't post it on Facebook.
