The USS Nimitz UFO incident was a radar-visual encounter of an unidentified flying object by US fighter pilots of the Nimitz Carrier Strike Group in 2004. Multiple F/A-18 Super Hornets pilots led by the commander of Strike Fighter Squadron 41 communicated that they saw a flying object, and radar signals were seen by United States Navy ships and aircraft in the area. An infrared video recording by an F/A-18 of part of the incident has also been released.
