Russia vs. USA - The Race to Crack UFO Technology

In this episode of WEAPONIZED, George Knapp and Jeremy Corbell delve into the long-secret world of Soviet-era UFO programs, drawing on Knapp’s groundbreaking investigative work in Russia during the 1990s. Amid the openness of Glasnost and Perestroika, Knapp traveled to Russia twice, securing unprecedented access to high-ranking military officials, scientists, and classified documents that revealed extensive Soviet UFO investigations, programs which U.S. intelligence believes are still underway. Key revelations include the SETKA program - a decade-long, nationwide effort led by Colonel Boris Sokolov to collect thousands of UFO reports from military units - and Thread 3, a sophisticated analysis initiative aimed at reverse-engineering UFO technology for military advantage. Knapp recounts dramatic incidents documented in the files, such as UFOs hovering over a Ukrainian ICBM base in 1982, where they allegedly entered launch codes and temporarily activated nuclear missiles. The discussion highlights parallels between Soviet and U.S. UFO exploitation efforts, including satellite tracking, pilot encounters, UFO landings and crashes, and the suppression of public discourse despite internal acknowledgments of blatant incursions by a non-human intelligence. Knapp explains his recent decision to release these documents publicly via Mysterywire.com, following their submission to Congress in 2025. The episode also touches on contemporary U.S. developments, including reports of a $10 million facility at Patuxent River Naval Air Station designed to house recovered UAP materials. Corbell and Knapp emphasize the global implications of UFO reverse-engineering races and the need for government transparency. The conversation concludes with the premiere of newly obtained military footage showing thermal orbs in triangular formation, labeled as UAP by U.S. intelligence and Department of War.
