On March 21, 1990, a silent discoid object was observed hovering and accelerating to speeds two to three times faster than modern fighter jets over Pereslav-Zalesski. The incident was documented with multiple witnesses and radar.

Earlier, in 1990, the newspaper Rabochaya Tribuna had published an article by Aviation General Maltsev, who commanded the territorial air defense, concerning a well-documented visual/radar case with multiple witnesses (Pereslav-Zalesski, the night of March 21, 1990) in which a silent discoid object went from hovering to a speed two or three times faster than that of a modern fighter jet.
