According to eyewitness accounts, UFO pilots, having landed, often repair their vehicles, which gives the impression that the technique of "saucers" is very unreliable. But we can also assume something else: in near-earth space there is a war between space races, and as a result - downed flying machines, their breakdowns and repairs.
Historical evidence, as well as myths and legends of many peoples of the world, suggest that battles between opposing groups of aliens were fought in ancient times. The most vivid description of them is given to us by the ancient Indian epic "Mahabharata".
The fact that these were exactly wars between aliens (which involved the population of the Earth there) is convincingly confirmed by the ancient manuscript "Vaimanika Shastra", which was written in the 4th century BC, stored in the central archive of Delhi. based on even more ancient documents. It details the air chariots, or vimanas, often mentioned in the Mahabharata. Getting acquainted with these texts, one is struck by the similarity of vimanas with modern UFOs. The Vaimanika Shastra also speaks of many other devices used by the "gods", which performed, for example, the functions of radars, cameras, searchlights, as well as powerful lasers.
In the epic, laser beams are called "fiery arrows". A participant in one of the battles, a certain Bhima, shooting with such "arrows", struck an entire army, consisting of 10 thousand war elephants, many chariots, horsemen and foot soldiers.
Some scientists believe that these events could well have occurred three and a half thousand years ago, at the time of the catastrophic death of the city of Mohenjo-Daro. Most, however, think that alien wars were fought in 10-12 millennia BC.
The existence of a certain base (or colony) of aliens, which the ancient Egyptian priests (and after them - Plato) called Atlantis, are attributed to approximately the same period (9-11 millennia BC). Atlantis was at war with another alien base, called by the priests the "Athenian state" (of course, these were not the Athens that are written about in the history books!).

The "Athenians" rendered the Atlanteans a worthy rebuff, and the hostilities ended with the complete destruction of the Atlantean base, which was literally wiped off the face of the Earth as a result of the use of some super-powerful weapon. The blow to Atlantis caused a global catastrophe on Earth, and the winners did not remain on the planet. Most likely, they moved to its immediate vicinity, it is possible that to the moon.
Flying "plates" and "crosses"
Fighting broke out in subsequent eras. The aliens did not interfere with people in their "showdowns", the main battles took place somewhere in space, only occasionally reaching our planet. So, a grandiose heavenly battle was played out in 1561 over Nuremberg. Its inhabitants witnessed the appearance of a huge number of flying "plates" and "crosses", as well as two giant "pipes" from which groups of large balls flew out.
Then they were joined by numerous spheres and discs colored red, blue and black. And all this unimaginable crowd, to the horror of the townspeople, arranged a real air battle in the sky, striking each other with "lightning" and "fire brighter than the sun." The violent clashes continued for over an hour. The padded vehicles fell, engulfed in flames, even in the fall trying to reach the enemy, and along the way destroyed ground structures. In particular, the northern part of the city wall was almost completely destroyed.
Five years later, in the same place, in Europe, only this time over Basel, the battle continued. First, huge "pipes" appeared (clearly the same ones that were seen over Nuremberg), spewing out clusters of black balls. Then a lot of objects of various, mostly spherical shapes arose. They flew at high speed and rammed each other, while flashing and roaring deafeningly. According to the testimony of the townspeople, some objects in the course of the battle not only changed their color, becoming most often fiery red, but also their shape, and did not ram the opponents, but rather “eat” them.
The knocked down "plate" was pulled out of the swamp
In recent decades, when thousands of eyewitnesses have already reported UFO sightings, cases of observation and their "combat clashes" with each other have become more frequent.
On September 16, 1989, in the skies over Perm, six aircraft resembling stacked saucers pursued a seventh. Even against the background of the evening clouds, one could discern how the dark gray "plates" were chasing bright gold, which was spinning madly, moving away from the fire. Alien ships were rushing over the city, making unthinkable maneuvers, then dropping almost to the very roofs, then soaring up. At the same time, six UFOs almost continuously "fired" at the seventh beams.
The townspeople with bated breath watched the fantastic spectacle, reminiscent of an episode of Lucas's "Star Wars". During this battle, electricity went out in some areas of the city. The golden "saucer" was eventually knocked down and began to decline. The others followed her fall and then left.
As ufologists learned, the UFO crashed in a marshy area on the territory of a military training ground. I managed to visit it only in the fall of the following year, 1990. The military did not deny the fact of the fall of the UFO, however, the members of the expedition were not allowed to the object, explaining this for security reasons. Indeed, two officers who participated in the extraction of the UFO from the swamp lay in the hospital with incomprehensible diagnoses. It was not possible to obtain information about the evacuation of the object and its further fate.
View from Russia
Several cases of "UFO battles" are cited by the famous ufologist G. Kolchin in his book "The UFO Phenomenon: A View from Russia".
On one August evening in 1986, in the village of Gatika, Kirishsky District, Leningrad Region, a group of journalists watched the flight of an unknown object in the form of two folded plates, glowing with a greenish light. The object moved smoothly over the village.
Suddenly, from somewhere, five smaller "saucers" appeared, which seemed to attack a large UFO, and the sounds of explosions were clearly audible. Small objects tried to approach the large one to the right and left, but he dodged them, then sharply increasing, then slowing down, and finally began to move away, gaining altitude. The pursuers did not lag behind. When the whole flock turned into luminous points, a large object suddenly flashed brightly, and a ray stretched from it almost to the very ground, which lasted 15 seconds in the air.
Another case, described in the book by G. Kolchin, occurred exactly one year later in Yaroslavl. The doctor and the ambulance paramedic saw two large lights in the northwestern sky, which were making mutual maneuvers. Finally, the more active UFO directed a light beam at the opponent, soared up sharply and disappeared. The second object at first froze, as if hitting an obstacle, and then, wobbling randomly, began to descend and disappeared over the horizon.
Someday we'll know everything
Of the foreign episodes of "Star Wars", the battle in the skies over East Africa on June 23, 1996 was best known. Hundreds of people - residents of the Kenyan town of Rift Valley - with bated breath, watched as two squads of alien ships pursued each other and were fired upon by dazzling bright red beams.
“They were ships of two completely different types,” says an eyewitness - retired colonel of the German Air Force Kurt Formann, who was visiting relatives in Kenya. “One squadron consisted of three domed starships, each the size of a large aircraft and equipped with a bright searchlight. They were opposed by four smaller ships, saucer-shaped, more high-speed and maneuverable. One of them was destroyed in the first minutes of the battle …"
The battle was fierce and short-lived. When only one surviving starship remained on each side, the battle ended: both ships flew away with lightning speed. The aliens' clash was recorded by Cairo radars, but the Egyptian military decided that it was a "meteor shower".
On the ground, no traces of downed UFOs were found. According to Formann, this is understandable: "The firepower of the onboard guns was so great that enemy ships were destroyed in the air, turning into clouds of glowing gas."
… Obviously, skirmishes in near-earth space are not that rare. Since 2000, NASA has seen at least three UFO sightings from its spacecraft. Indeed, isn't there a war going on in the vicinity of our planet between different space races? And if it does, is it not because of the control over the Earth and over the most valuable resource of the planet - people?
Or maybe this is not a war at all, but something else? There is no answer yet. But someday the motley mosaic of facts, often contradictory, which currently represents the UFO phenomenon, will add up to a coherent picture, and we will find out who the aliens are, what are their relationships with each other, and much more.
