A Swedish military conscript reported a 'ghost rocket' sighting on August 12, 1946, consisting of a persistent double smoke trail observed over Stockholm. The report confirms no physical craft, light, or sound was detected during the 15-minute observation.
On August 13, 1946, Vpl konstapel Söderström of the 5th Battery, Lv 3, submitted a formal report regarding a 'ghost rocket' (spökraket) sighting that occurred on the night of August 12, 1946. The witness, stationed on the roof of the Lv 3 office building near the flagpole, reported observing the phenomenon at 22:51:30. The object was described as a double smoke trail, which the witness compared to the condensation trails left by aircraft at very high altitudes. The trail was observed moving from the northwest toward the southeast. Söderström explicitly noted that no physical body, light, or sound was associated with the phenomenon. The smoke trails persisted for approximately 15 minutes before the witness ceased observation. The report includes a reference to an attached sketch of the sighting and was addressed to the Chief of the Royal Stockholm Anti-Aircraft Regiment.
