Active duty Navy chief who witnessed UFO convinced doubting colleagues with radar expertise: ‘It was like checkmate’

An active-duty Navy chief saw four tic-tac shaped UFOs off the coast of California while working on the USS Jackson — and convinced a doubting radar officer the craft were real with an undeniable “checkmate.”

US Navy Senior Chief Petty Officer Alexandro Wiggins witnessed multiple UFOs on radar on the evening of February 15, 2023 — observing the first one emerge seamlessly out of the ocean, he said.

“What am I seeing?” recounted Chief Wiggins, who spoke to The Post on behalf of himself as an individual and not as a representative of the Navy. “From my observations, it did in fact come from the water.”

“It was first seen on radar and once I saw it on radar, I wanted to confirm visually what I was seeing on radar if it was clouds and atmospherics and something else.”

Wiggins then moved out to the core bridge wing of the USS Jackson and went through his mental checklist of things the object could be — but was convinced by an odd maneuver it made that it was not standard human technology. 

“It [was] rising into the air high enough to where I’m like, alright, that’s definitely: A. too fast and B. not something I’ve seen before,” the 21-year Navy veteran said.

The keen-eyed officer saw three other objects moving in coordination roughly 8 nautical miles away from the USS Jackson — then reported the unknown objects to a tactical officer and rushed to observe the craft on a Sapphire radar.

A video recording of the Sapphire radar tracking was published by George Knapp and Jeremy Corbell on the Weaponized Podcast in April.

“From the video, that’s what you get, you see that original Tic-Tac object that I visually saw off the port bridge wing,” Wiggins said.

The clip showed an oval-shaped black spot on the radar moving up and down with apparent ease — and then rendezvousing with three other similarly shaped crafts.

“In utilizing the Saphire system, you’re able to see silhouettes and heat signatures of different objects. So, in relation to the tic-tacs – once it went away at near instantaneous speed, we had some skeptics in ICC-1,” Wiggins said of the other Navy men on the bridge.

At least one of the radar operators claimed the object was likely a plane, but Wiggins said he knew what he saw.

Then an actual plane passed by on the radar and its form was clearly visible, unlike the tic-tac-like figures they had just observed.

“About 30, 45 seconds pass, and I see an incoming or a passing by commercial aircraft. And so I tell the CSM, slew into that aircraft around the same location, and lo and behold, you see the air signature coming off the back. You see the wings perfectly. You see the tailwing. The side wings. You see the shape of the nose of the aircraft. You see it perfectly.”

“It was kind of like ‘Checkmate,’ and he sat back down,” Wiggins said. “Even if I were to second-guess myself [before], I no longer could.”

The father of three came forward to bear witness to the stellar sighting at the third UAP hearing organized by the House Transparency Task Force, where shocking video of a Hellfire missile striking a UFO was shared on Tuesday.
