# Deep Dive study: Belgium Triangle Wave (1989-1990)
## Comprehensive Analysis of Europe's Most Documented Mass UAP Event

---

## 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

### Case Overview and Significance

The Belgium Triangle Wave of 1989-1990 represents the most extensively documented and officially investigated mass Unidentified Aerial occurrence event in European history. Over a period of approximately six months, more than 13,500 people, including hundreds of police officers, military personnel, and government officials, reported observations of large, triangular aircraft exhibiting extraordinary flight characteristics over Belgian airspace.

The incident reached its climax on the night of March 30-31, 1990, when Belgian Air Force F-16 fighter jets were scrambled to intercept unknown radar contacts. During this encounter, the F-16s achieved multiple radar locks on objects demonstrating performance capabilities far exceeding any known aircraft technology of the time. The Belgian government's unprecedented transparency and cooperation with civilian researchers established new standards for official UAP investigation and disclosure.
