Malmstrom AFB

Base

Montana base tied to several notable UFO claims, including missile shutdown incidents

Status — Confirmed

  Strategic Missile Hub

Malmstrom Air Force Base houses Minuteman missiles that formed part of the U.S. nuclear deterrent.1 In March 1967, officers reported a glowing red object hovering near the launch facilities as multiple missiles went offline.2 Later briefings attributed the shutdown to electrical faults3, but witnesses maintain the incident was never fully explained.4 The base remains a recurring location in UFO literature.5 See the Malmstrom missile shutdown documentation for declassified memos.
