UFO in Israeli air force video?

I must be missing something. I assume if they're scratches, the camera isn't stationary. But in relation to the plane being filmed, you can see that the camera is just pointing ahead. How can the illusion be created from scratches--twice--if the camera isn't panning anywhere? Looks like two physical objects to me.

Take a look 30 seconds into this video from the BBC and see what flies behind an Israeli F16 fighter jet. I hope it`s not a hoax. Could this be another aircraft? I can`t see a tail on the other object.

Its only the tags in the pilots window to indicate the angles of what they see outside .. feks : "enemy at 10 o clock"

I too think these are physical objects,and I am still going with possible IAF support aircraft.The white dots are camera distortion IMO.
Interesting none the less.

The camera is panning inside the cockpit. You'll notice the Horizon come up at the end of the scene.

The white flecks seem to be small pits or scratches reflecting sunlight. The dark streaks are some kind of matter. Who knows what. Bug on the windshield?

Look closely at the reflection in the visor in the preceding shot, you can see the ring that bisects the canopy, visible on the other fighter, that runs from side to side, between the front and rear occupants of the aircraft.

That view is a self portrait of the cameraman, the rear occupant of the aircraft.

If you look over his left shoulder, (to the right in the frame), you can see a dark "skid" mark on the canopy that follows the movement of the plane, using the trailing edges of the wings for reference.

The following shot, containing the dark "flying objects", locks onto the flight of the subject aircraft by panning the camera up and over the cameraman's left shoulder, as the cameraman's aircraft and the subject aircraft separate.

I would venture to say, there's at least three dark "skid" marks on the left side of the canopy; the one we see as a static object to the right of the cameraman's head, (his left) and the two that emulate "objects" in flight.

The white marks all appear to track in the same manner as the dark "objects" as well.

As a matter of fact, watch closely and you can see the reflection of the cameraman's hand on the inside surface of the canopy, just before the shot changes. That gives you an idea how close the camera is to the canopy.

My vote is for simple dark colored "skid" marks on the surface of the canopy, being mistaken for independent unidentified objects in flight.

Looks like a dirty canopy, sorry.

goosdawg, attack, thanks. I see it now. Once I looked at the canopy in the reflection shot, and visualized the cameraman shooting off to the side, not forward, the ufo illusion disappeared. And yes, the white spots that looked like they were flying all over now appear very close and on the canopy itself. Wow, photography can be really misleading. This is the kind of thing that makes me very wary of lunar and mars anomalies. The eye can be convincingly fooled by 2-dimensional images. All you have to do is make a wrong assumption, as I did here.

On youtube now.

It must be determined if the F16 passes in front or gets blocked by the supossedly ufo.

If the F16 gets blocked, then its a scracht in the cockpit.

If not...

Lots more screen captures over at UFO Casebook. Thanks for all the input guys.

And here`s a video done in slow motion on Youtube.

Looks pretty interesting to me. Maybe this should be checked out by JRitz don't you think?

I think that the object is not a cockpit glitch or mark.

The F16 doesn´t appear to be blocked by it.

Yep looks like the real thing to me. The real question is what are they doing there policing the Israeli fighters? The Refs are here!

Wow, that is obviously not a part of the canopy seeing how the fighter jet passes in FRONT of it, but the really shocking thing is how big it is if it really is in the background

It Looks alot like this ufo shot in Iraq-

A scratch on the windshield. No doubt about it.

If that is a scratch (multiple ones at that) these guys need to take better care of thier canopy's. Which I would think would be made from some highly scratch resistance material.

A scratch on the canopy? please! notice when Iseek joins up must have been getting ready to debunk 9/11 ers

The marks move with the canopy. The only way to not see that is to not want to see that. Just go through frame by frame and watch the reflections and the other marks on the canopy. You will see what is going on if you want to.

Whatever! Whats with the scary face on the wall at 1:21?

How did they get hubcaps in Israeli air-space?
