1. Radar observation in northern Norway reports that there have been frequent
instances in which plotted aircraft appeared to come to a full atop, then
resume flight on the former course and speed. It has been suggested that
these represent helicopters or unusual speed.
2. One very clear plot is of special interest. The aircraft started southwest
of Murmansk and headed out to open sea on a northeas* course, then suddenly
stopped. The speed was very high, about 1,000 k?s per hour. After a stup of
five minutes the aircraft resumed on the sa.'e course. Before the plotted
plane started, there had been some activity from other fields, but during
the plotted flight all other air activity ceased, indicating that it may have
been an experimental flight.
3. Experiments in radar jamming have also been reported from this area.
