An unidentified clear radar signal was detected in the area of the city of Cool in the North Caucasus by Soviet military radio engineering units in the region of the mountains of the North Caucasus. The object did not respond to the confirmation signals on the radar screens and was marked as "hostile". 

Air defense systems were put on alert, including anti-aircraft missile systems, as well as MIG 25 Foxbat interceptors from bases in Rostov and Krymsk and SU-15 from Sleptsovskaya station were confused with the task of identifying the object and forcing it to land, but it was not possible to intercept it.

After an unsuccessful interception, the order was given to arm and use weapons. Units on the ground were also notified. 

The 481st Air Defense Missile Regiment in Ardon launched a surface-to-air missile that hit a UFO. The radar recorded the fall of the object over the Aric ridge. A search and rescue team was sent aboard the MI-8 Hip helicopter, which found the disk in a mountainous area somewhere in the area between the villages of Novoe Hamidiye and Nizhny Kurp. 

It was a small disk with a bell-shaped dome, with a diameter of 6.2 to 6.9 meters and a height of about 3.5 meters. It was found and restored by the military among the bushes and rocks near the mountain range. He fell upside down, with a dome at the bottom. The hull color was a dull gray. The facility had an open door on the hull that opened like an elevator. There were three small landing struts on the bottom, one of them damaged. 

The disk crashed into the rocky surface with a large impact, forming a deep ridge. The crash site was cordoned off, and a special research team was sent to the site in protective suits and with dosimeters. Radiation from the crashed ship was detected and precautions were taken, although some of the servicemen did receive extremely high doses of radiation. 

During the inspection of the object, access was made to a partially open door and an entrance was made to the object. 

Inside the cabin, along with the simple smooth control panels and other equipment, 3 aliens were found sprawled on the floor of the cabin, two were dead, and the third was slightly moving with obvious signs of life. The damaged equipment on board the object apparently crushed the other two aliens. 

It was obvious that the surviving alien was trying to get out of the ship and opened the door from the inside, but was unable to get out due to his near-fatal injuries and general state of confusion. Unfortunately, the medic's attempt to save the creature's life failed, and the creature died shortly after being retrieved from the disk. 

The creatures were about a meter and a half tall, pot-bellied, with white-grayish skin. They had large hairless heads, almost round large black eyes, covered with lids (as was found at the autopsy) long limbs and six long fingers. Two of the creatures were found to have died on impact. 

The MI-8 helicopter delivered the object to the Mozdok air base, where nuclear warheads and Tu-95 "Bear" strategic bombers were then located. 

A group of military specialists arrived by plane from Moscow and conducted a preliminary inspection of the crashed car. among them were specialists of the scientific and technical committees of the air Defense, specialists of the Lyubertsy Research Institute-13 and some other military research institutes, including the KGB and GRU. 

The autopsies of the aliens were conducted in a bunker in the Moscow region, and their further safety was ensured in glass containers in a top-secret underground bunker, isolated among forests, under a building on the territory of the biomedical research of the military space forces. center east of Solnechnogorsk. 

Later, the bodies were transported to an underground base on the island of Novaya Zemlya in the Arctic Circle. From Mozdok, the damaged disk was taken to the territory of the State Central Landfill No. 4 Kapustin Yar and placed in an underground bunker to the west of Aremkin.

Location. Arik Mountain Ridge, SE of Prohlad Nyi, Kabardino-Balkar Republic, Russia
Date: August 12 1989
Time: 1100A-1300
An unidentified clear radar signal was detected in the area near the town of Prohladnyi in the North Caucasus by Soviet military radio technical units near the North Caucasus Mountains. The object did not respond to acknowledgement signals on the radar screens and was labeled as “hostile”. Air defense systems were alerted, including surface to air missile units, and MIG 25 Foxbat interceptors from Rostov and Krymsk bases and SU-15’s from Sleptsovskaya were scrambled, with the task to identify and force the object to land, but these failed to intercept the UFO. After the failed interception the order was given to arm and use weapons. Also units on the ground were notified. A surface to air missile was launched by the 481 Air Defense anti aircraft missile regiment in Ardon, which incredibly struck the UFO. The radar tracked the object’s fall over the Arik Ridge. A search and rescue party onboard a MI-8 Hip helicopter was dispatched and found the disk in the mountainous area somewhere in an area between the villages of Novoye Hamidiye and Nizhniy Kurp. It was a small disk with a bell-shaped dome, about 6.2 to 6.9 meters in diameter and about 3.5 meters high. It was found and recovered by military amid the bushes and rocks near the mountainous ridge. I had crashed upside down, with the cupola on its bottom. The color of the hull was a dull gray. The object had an opened door on its hull, which opened like an elevator. Three small landing props were on the bottom, one of them damaged. The disk smashed into the rocky surface with great impact creating a deep ridge. The crash site was cordoned off, and a special research team wearing protection suits and carrying dosimeters were dispatched to the place. Radiation was detected coming from the crashed vehicle and precaution methods were set in place, thought some of the military personnel did receive extremely high radiation doses. Upon examination of the object, the partially opened door was accessed and entry into the object was gained. Inside the cabin, together with simple smooth control panels and other equipment, 3 aliens were found, sprawled on the cabin’s floor, two were dead and the third was moving slightly with obvious signs of life. The damaged equipment onboard the object apparently crushed the other two aliens. It was obvious that the surviving alien had been trying to exit the craft and had opened the door from inside, but did not succeed in exiting as a result of his almost fatal wounds and his general state of confusion. Unfortunately the medic’s attempt to save the entity’s life failed and the being died short thereafter after it was extracted out of the disk. The beings were about 1.5 meters high, pot-bellied, with white-grayish skin. They had large hairless heads, almost round large black eyes, covered with eyelids (as was established during an autopsy) long extremities and had six long fingers. As was established, two of the beings had died on impact. The MI-8 Hip chopper transported the object to Mozdok Air Base that housed nuclear warheads and TU-95 Bear strategic bombers at the time. A team of military specialists arrived by aircraft from Moscow and performed preliminary examination on the crashed vehicle, these included specialists from Scientific and Technical Committees of the Air Defense, experts from Lubertsy NII-13 scientific research institute and from some other military research institutes, including KGB and GRU. The autopsy on the aliens was conducted at a bunker in the Moscow region and their further preservation was secured in glassy containers at a top-secret underground bunker, isolated amid the forests, and under a building on the territory of the military space forces biomedical research center east of Solnechnogorsk. Later the bodies were moved to an underground base on Novaya Zemlya Island beyond the Polar Circle. From Mozdok the damage disk was delivered to the territory of Kapustin Yar State Central Range # 4 and placed into an underground bunker west of Ahryomkin. Eventually (in 1992) the disk was transported to Novaya Zemlya Island.
