rendlesham AFB UK 1980s … nuclear storage facility
The Rendlesham Forest incident was a series of reported sightings of unexplained lights near Rendlesham Forest in Suffolk, England, in December 1980, which became linked with UFO landings
also another good case but not nuclear related “raf cosford ufo” and try searching for “night of the triangles wales uk”
A recent SCUAP report had a Excel spreadsheet of cases between 1945-1975. There are nearly 600 cases on the spreadsheet. SCU UAP Pattern Recognition Study 1945-1975 US Atomic Weapons Complex Data.xlsx https://zenodo.org/record/7295958#.ZC4YzC_MLT_

According to Jacques Vallée, there was a lesser known UFO crash (before Roswell) that happened within days after the Trinity 1st nuclear explosion in 1945 and he wrote a book (not a good one) about it: Trinity: The best kept secret
Indian Point nuclear power plant went into full lock down while a huge triangle hovered over it at close range in New York in 1980s.
1968: At Minot AFB, UFOs were observed by personnel on the ground and in the air (B-52) also tracked on radar, well-documented testimonies with radarscope photos from the B-52.
This was one of the great sightings, most people don’t know anything about it. There were multiple sightings, radar, the crew of the B-52 changes course and tried to get a closer look. There are reports the base was broken into and the lid of the missile silo was removed.

1953: Kingman UFO crash after after nuclear test (operation Upshot Knothole)
1979: Soesterberg
In the early morning of February 3, 1979, a giant black triangular object flew over Soesterberg Air Base. At least twelve soldiers witnessed this bizarre spectacle.
One of the most interesting ones I couldn’t see here – is the “green fireball” sightings over Los Alamos nuclear lab aprox 1949. I read about them in Richard Dolan’s UFO’s and the National Security State Volume 1. I haven’t researched it in detail, but if memory serves they were witnessed by many of the atomic scientists.
