UFO exploded in mid air – showering a small Vietnamese island with metal-like debris.

The unidentified flying object is NOT believed to be a plane as none have been reported missing in the area.

Investigators are working on the theory the explosion happened five miles above the ground.

A search of Phu Quoc island off southern Vietnam uncovered shards of grey “metal” up to four feet long.

Soldiers combed the area for clues yesterday as airlines in Vietnam, Cambodia and Thailand insisted none of their aircraft were missing in the area.

Villagers in the nearby Cambodian province of Kampot said on Tuesday that they had heard a loud explosion.

A day later they found chunks of material near the coastline.

After the explosion Kung Mony, of Cambodia’s Air Force, claimed it could have been a foreign plane but he later backed down from the theory. One explanation could be that the plane was a military one – but none of the nearby countries has admitted to losing any aircraft.

I can tell that is the photon array support from an Alpha Centauri ship.

[Defiant]

No, those are the kind of rivets that are only used in Raelia.

They don’t build UFO’s like they use to.

[WackySam]

I could tell you what it is but I’d rather not be subject to an anal probe.

****

Must be made by unionized aliens, who outsourced to lower species.

Locals also were treated to a shower of Chinese fast food , proving that man who fly upside down , have crack up!

Primary buffer panel. They have a right bad habit of flying off certain classes of ships upon atmospheric entry.

SShh... there is a Moonbat on the original thread whose has had 3 encounters! In Ridgefield CT no less! I had a College friend from Ridgefield who drank alot...

Quickly... Warn the others....

The Moonbat has likely Pro Created!!!

Auugggh!
RUN FOR THE HILLS!!

[SIDENET]

We could not possibly hope to duplicate that type of technology.

[wastedyears]

Weird

[xp38]

Designed on Vulcan...assembled in China

[RobinOfKingston]

Day-um! That’s a piece of the rack off my ‘78 Ford pickup. How’d ‘Ol’ Blue’ get into the air over Phu Quoc?

[swampdweller]

It’s clearly the workmanship of Zartog from Planet Zandor. Those bolts and rivets give it away.

[Tzimisce]

...so they can build a craft that can travel the distances of space only to have it blow up in the earth’s atmosphere?

[LibertyRocks]

Ping for you...

Obviously sleigh parts, the question is, “ What in tarnation was Santa Claus doing in Phuket, Thailand?”

I don't know, but it looks like an SA-2 nailed him.

Looks like part of Wrigley Field.

"I could tell you what it is but I’d rather not be subject to an anal probe."

Happened to me once, but being a person who always tried to make the very best of a bad situation, I talked them into warming the probe. So, if it ever happens to you and you learn that the probe is warm, you can thank me.

[Candor7]

You gotta admit though, that's some damn fine spot welding that went onto this metal ( photo post 18).

[max americana]

That’s the chassis of a Chevy Silverado.

Only in Vietnam that a flying pick up truck could be confused as a UFO.

"Must be made by unionized aliens, who outsourced to lower species."

Or by Spacebus, using the same whoops-it-fell-off tail technology as its French corporate sibling, Airbus.

[Candor7]

It is weird. If those spot welds dotting the frame secured the outer skin of whatever it was, its pretty advanced aero-tech.( photo post 18).

This is just a ploy to get a jump in the Vietnamese tourism industry. (Shouldn’t the guy holding the debris in the picture be screaming “AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH the RADIATION is BURNING my HANDS!” AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!)

[HereInTheHeartland]

That advanced alien technology looks like...riveted metal.

We must close the alien rivet gap.

[RinaseaofDs]

It’s got bolts. Not sure that a UFO would have bolts.

[scott7278]

The title indicates that it’s metal-like, while the article puts metal in quotation marks. Is it really confirmed that it’s not metal?

“The UFOs have landed and we’ll tell you where they are...
Midnight Star, I wanna know, I wanna know!”

[RinaseaofDs]

Built by aliens on a planet where they are willing to take these sorts of manufacturing jobs.

Just doing the jobs that aliens on their planet are not willing to take.

The anal probes? Nope, that work stays in-planet. Too much proprietary probe tech to keep close to the envirosuit with ALL SIX TENTACLES BABY!

Well, Gee Whiz! Yer always tellin' us that since you put in them there fancy-schmancy Splitfahr sparkplugs in that truck'll fly!

Space Mexicans?

Where there are bolts you are sure to find nuts nearby...

Not enough info to tell. It looks like stressed metal, but what kind? Is it aluminum? We just don't know.This happened over the Western most frontier of Vietnam, an island off the coast of Cambodia, so maybe the Cambodian military knows more about it.

The way the officer in the photo is holding that frame, it looks pretty light as if it were aluminum or some such.

My theory is that the Cambodians or Viets blasted something out of the air, maybe smugglers or drug runners, and the Vietnamese are letting them know they are onto their intercept work.Or maybe the Vietnamese blew it out of the air and are letting the Cambodians know that they scored the hit and are publicly denying it?

These things can get complex quickly.

[pankot]

I’d tell all of you what that really was, but then I’d have to kill you all.

[Candor7]

Are you Thai?

Well, its an interesting way for the Viets to let everyone know they blew a Cambodian plane out of the air, maybe smugglers or drug runners.

Apparently their SAMs work as well now as they did in the 1970s.

That is WAY too much information...

Be careful, if the aliens are from Californicatia, they may try to marry you. The Supreme Court there has said so.

[brityank]

Call NASA to go pick up their tank. So much for it just “burning up on re-entry”!

[notdownwidems]

Them fools prolly let that same Ay-rab flight crew that wrecked the Airbus do trials on their U-Fo!

[Othniel]

Mayhem will ensue....

No, that is exactly the information I needed. I have lived far too long in fear of the cold anal probe. Now I am free.

Santa? Looks like a left-rear alitooter. (With respects to Opus in a “Wish for Wings that Work”.)

[J40000]

They need to find the part of the ‘object’ that is stamped with the words -”Made in China”...

[J40000]

Hillarys chastity belt?

[McGruff]

That's what you get with COTS UFOs.

Kerry’s putting in for another Purple Heart.

They need to study the threads to see if the UFO home planet uses SAE or metric standards for threads.
