During a cold February evening in 2016, a bewildering incident would transpire on the outskirts of Cardiff, which would in time go on to become known as the ‘Welsh Roswell Incident’. Did the British military genuinely ambush a UFO in the Welsh valleys, or was this instead a misunderstanding of more earthly events? Join us, as we delve into the Mysterious Pentyrch Incident.

The fun thing about stories involving the Military is that you can genuinely never be sure if they are covering up for legitimate reasons of National Security, to prevent embarrassment of some kind, hide incompetence, to prevent panic, to protect missions and/or tactics from enemy intelligence, or they just want people to think something for whatever reasons. This makes almost any such story perfect fodder for conspiracy and mystery. So long as we have "Military Intelligence," we can be sure that this channel will have good content!

I'm a pilot based at Cardiff international, right next to St Athan. We use J36 of the M4 on the way out of the controlled airspace surrounding the airport for VFR flight and you have a very good view of Pentyrch/Smaelog woods as you overfly J36. I can't imagine a military exercise taking place underneath the CTR there, you are literally a few minutes from an international airport and are still within the boundaries of the control area around the airport, not to mention the high urban concentration. Pilots who visit Cardiff often comment on how liberating it is to fly in Wales, west of Cardiff. If you look at a CAA 1:500000 map of Wales and South of England you can see that we have a tonne of unrestricted class G airspace, lots of which is used for military exercises as is made evident by the NOTAMs mentioned in this video. To carry out a training mission at short notice within the controlled airspace near the international airport doesn't make much sense to me!

[@lepolhart3242]

That`s because it sounds like it was a real UFO and like always the military use the excuse "military exercise" to cover up. If it sounds too good to be true, it often is.

Oh my God I saw this! I'm from Creigiau and my friends and I had gone for a late evening jaunt up to Creigiau quarry which meets the fields on the border of Creigiau and Pentyrch. We were on the lower shelf of the quarry so about 100ft below the fields above where these lights were and I remember thinking must be a police chopper looking for someone, not uncommon to see around there, but also being a bit of an aviation nerd it struck me that the configuration of the lights made no sense and were unlike any I'd ever seen on a helicopter. The other thing is that though it was clearly airborne, there was absolutely no noise. As strange as that is I rationalised that it must have been a trick of the sound waves missing us because we were far below in the bowl of the quarry, I assumed it was some strange trick of physics. But then things got weirder naturally the 4 of us were staring at these lights, confused and a bit unnerved by this object that we couldn't figure out, when the lights which had been in a straight row began to move away from each other, floating in circular patterns as more lights appeared and others disappeared, some turning green, then turning red again. Again, we questioned whether it was just our eyes playing tricks on us in the dark but we were all seeing the same thing. Finally the lights realigned before slowly moving off out sight, across the lip of the quarry and out of sight. Moments later a low flying jet passed right above the spot and we noticed a number of helicopters in the area as we made our way back home. For a weeks after you'd often see Chinooks flying low in formation over the village, which again isn't unusual due to St Athen being nearby. Either way the entire thing was very weird and to this day I've never fully been able to explain what we saw that night and why, if it was a helicopter, we couldn't hear it - Chinooks are notoriously loud.

I remember this event back in 2016 as I live not far from the area. Indeed it was covered by local media, both online & printed. Natural resources Wales cut down a lot of trees damaged during this incident claiming they were diseased, but still left the stumps there. Military resources were still in the area for some time after the event. Also military aircraft departed R.A.F. Northolt and landed at R.A.F St Athan in the hours afterwards. It is believed and looks like another Black Ops search & recovery operation, as the R.V. Point is made known to the military some time beforehand. These operations normally take place, out of the way, further north in the Brecon Beacons National Park. Why did it take place so close to a populated area is anyone’s guess.

[@zach11241]

Not terribly hard if you know your aircraft. I can pick out Apache’s really easily at night (I used to live near a military base and always watched them flying at night). The aircraft are a bit harder, but not impossible. Could be him “guesstimating” too. If you see a huge cargo plane running red lights (or no lights) you can assume it probably military and you can rule out small planes like fighters. It’s difficult, but if you’ve seen enough of them (or even just know your local military planes) you can usually make a pretty reasonable educated guess.

[@GhostRydr1172]

And very unfortunate or inconvenient to not have a cellphone with camera on her person when she "witnessed" all that.

[@peteranderson037]

@@zach11241 But that illustrates my point. You can sometimes make them out when they're low to the ground. However, an E-3 Sentry isn't a very maneuverable aircraft with that large radome and doesn't spend much time low to the ground except when it is landing and taking off. Why would it be low enough to the ground that it's silhouette could be made out by an untrained observer at night, maneuvering aggressively as if it were searching for something on the ground? This is the exact opposite flight profile that it is designed to perform. And the fact that a large number of military aircraft were seen in the preceding days does, in fact, indicate that some sort of pre-planned military maneuver was being conducted. While Operation Chameleon occurred the week before and in the north, moving large military units takes time and these units could have been flying out through Wales even up to several weeks after the training operation had ended.

[@genxer1]

@@peteranderson037 I thought that sounded strange as well. Why would large, unarmed, not very maneuverable transport aircraft be flying in an aggressive manner trying to 'hem' in an unidentified craft like interceptors, a task they are wholly unsuited for? Then try and chase something down? Like you said, why would a very expensive AWACS plane that normally cruises at around 10,000 feet be that low, hunting for something on the ground? They fly high and look for things then direct other, more suitable aircraft to intercept.

[@Eidolon1andOnly]

Everything about this feels like a military exercise, albeit likely more of a top secret one, hence the late NOTAM, the larger no fly radius, the Prime Minister visiting that area on the same day, the lack of any conclusive video or photo evidence well into the age of the smartphone, and the hours in which it happened. There are more photos and videos of the Pheonix Lights and that took place before cellphones had cameras, let alone being smartphones. When video cameras still used tapes, and most cameras still used film.

[@genericpersonx333]

Indeed, but it is a fun story all the same. People love thinking the Military's predilection for secrecy is proof of conspiracy and malicious intent, and I think there is value in people making up silly stories about the Military, because it helps confound enemy intelligence gathering. Even in WW2, people would dangle funny lights off balloons or tie noise-makers to wild animals, just to cause a little mayhem. Personally, I am hard-pressed to think of a better way to flood an enemy intelligence service with useless data than to get a bunch of civilians around to scream at the local police about funny lights in the sky.

[@reecewestmoreland6137]

Is there even photos of the a ledged crash site, I mean that something you'd want to take photos of and document isn't ? and it's one of things that'd be hard to cover up without leaving clear signs of recent disturbances. The lack of photo evidence to me makes me feel this is civilians misunderstanding military operations and trying to spin it for attention / money / tourism ? and polygraph tests don't mean anything if the person really believes what they said, but it doesn't mean they're right

[@reesedaniel5835]

Everything about this feels like a typical UFO event and government coverup to me. They lie about most everything. And then gaslight the truth tellers and eye witnesses, telling them they didn't see what they clearly saw. That's also known as psychological abuse. Psychopaths are known to do this...

[@simonsimon325]

But no video evidence proves nothing either way. No one's in any doubt that people witnessed a significant military event that would have involved lots of aircraft and lights. And yet no footage of this dramatic event exists. So it's a puzzle why no one thought to film this drama regardless of whether it was a preplanned exercise or not. Maybe the footage just didn't make it to the web, or maybe it was forcefully removed. Either way, lack of any pictorial evidence tells us nothing about what sort of event it was.

Do they ever use blue lights? I saw UFO'S in Montana when I was a child, driving near Bozeman with my family at night. And we couldn't figure out what we were seeing. Big blue lights on either side of the valley moving very strangely.

Wow why have I never heard of this incident before?! I read a lot about mysterious incidents, ghosts, UFO’s and other unexplainable phenomena and this is the first I’ve heard of this. Definitely a bizarre story. Makes me wonder how much more Clark might know but the government (or whoever) has silenced her. Wonderful storytelling, gave me the chills! Hopefully more facts about this case will reveal itself in the future. 🤞

[@acoustic5738]

From the military pov there are a couple of questionable things here. Sentry does not operate low and close to combat. its a back end aircraft and its not supposed to be near combat because they are irreplacebable. Clark says Apaches showed some red light in front of them wich is very odd and doubtful when all you want is hide in the night. And finally the explossion comment as a practice explosion just make no sense, there are no practice explosions, thats just plain stupid.

[@SuperDiablo101]

Now ive never been in the military however i do know a good deal about Military aircraft and enough to know that along with refueling aircraft and transportation aircraft the E-3s are the most valuable in terms of information gathering. So to tie this all into what you said ( and I agree with you) but whether an training exercise or actual combat mission only an idiot would send an Airwings most valuable assets out without some sort of fighter aircover none of which was witnessed.

[@genxer1]

Not only are they invaluable but they are wholly unsuited for anything other that their very specific tasks. They aren't fast or maneuverable and they are unarmed...the last aircraft you would want intercepting or chasing suspicious aircraft or anywhere near one for that matter. Same with the transport aircraft she said she saw. It's kinda comical to me that she saw Globemasters and Hercules in hot pursuit of a UFO.

[@TucsonHat]

Y'all should do a video on The Superstition Mountains/Lost Dutchman State Park near Phoenix, Arizona. Ancient mountain range sacred to the Apache Indians. It's pretty much always been "cursed" to non natives with massacres and countless, very mysterious, deaths and murders and disappearances. Vortexes/portals, headless bodies w/heads(cut off) found miles away in caves/crevasses, mystery snipers and murderers, ghosts, gods, cryptids... There's even supposedly a remaining group of Apaches said to violently protect the areas massive amount of hidden gold. Despite the beauty, popularity and being a state park, people still die there regularly. Quite a history.

[@SewerRatsarepeopletoo]

Former Army Reservist: Little detail to query in the accounts relating to the "soldiers moving about with weapons on display". Outside of Majorly pre-planned, on range exercises, you would expect soldiers in the Army to be using blanks. You would expect the blank firing attachment [basically a muzzle attached bright yellow cage designed to protect from blank discharge and accidental live fire] to be fitted to the rifles carried by the infantry involved. These aren't subtle, they would be apparent as the only flashes of yellow on a soldiers person. Even an untrained civvy would spot them. At night with back light they reflect light really well [but not Day-Glo- more like hazard yellow]. Just food for thought.

It's a good question but there should still be records of this event if it really happened. Who knows how much its embellished though.
