De flyvende X: Luftvaktinspeksjonen opptar etterforskningen

This newspaper report from July 21, 1946, details the growing concern and official investigation into unidentified aerial phenomena, referred to as 'flying X' or 'ghost projectiles,' over Scandinavia. The Norwegian Defense Command (Forsvarets Overkommando) has initiated an investigation into sightings, including an incident where two objects were observed passing over Feiring and crashing into Lake Mjøsa. Simultaneously, Swedish military units are searching for a crashed object in a lake in Norrbotten, where witnesses reported a large hole in the lake bed and significant displacement of mud and sludge, suggesting a high-speed impact. The search in Norrbotten is hampered by the depth and amount of sludge in the lake. Additional reports from Sorsele, Sweden, describe an incident where paper fell from a cloudless sky where no aircraft were visible or heard. The Swedish newspaper Aftonbladet speculates that these objects are V-1 type projectiles being launched in pairs, potentially from Peenemünde, and notes that they have been observed traveling over Sweden, Norway, and southern Finland.
