A funny thing to mention is the the Japanese military and merchant shipping reported more UFO sightings during WWII then any other nation combined. The majority of which they say originated from the sea.
Even the US Navy claimed to encounter them at sea in the Pacific.
This is just one of many accounts. This one from the Battleship New York in the Pacific.
EXCERPT (from Chapter 16)
New Guinea was an early prize for the Japanese army during the
early war years, but by July 1944, after brutal to-the-last-man
fighting, U.S. Marines recaptured it. By mid-March 1945,
New Guinea was under Allied control and considered fairly safe. Close by,
after suffering from its intense battle at Iwo Jima, the USS New York was
returning to combat duty. Escorted by two destroyers, it set sail to join up
with the Seventh Fleet.
The weather that day was sunny and clear. Around 1300 hours general
quarters sounded, electrifying the calming nature of the warm sea air.
Alert, Corporal Donald Pratt and his crewmembers prepared for an attack
by Japanese forces, possibly suicide aircraft. Pratt was a 40mm gunner. He
was ready, waiting for the order to fire. Nerves tense, he watched, but the
sky was clear. No Japanese planes appeared.
On the New York’s radar, things were different. The radar screen was
picking up a single blip. It had appeared out of thin air. Just seconds later,
the blip was in view. Cpl. Pratt watched as the object hovered motionless,
almost directly over the battleship. Captain K.C. Christian was watching
through his binoculars, as were approximately 2,000 other navy crewmen,
some with their own binoculars.
The object was “silver in color,” “very shiny” and “did not change
colors,” Pratt said. “It was much larger than the brightest star would be,
but smaller than a full moon.” Quietly, it continued hovering above them,
just matching the New York’s speed and course.
For thirty minutes, the New York and her two escorts anxiously braced
themselves for something to happen. The strange object did nothing, but
its presence was too much for the naval vessels to stand by and do nothing.
Was this a Japanese secret weapon waiting for the right time to strike? Or
was it waiting for more of them to show up and attack in number? Captain
Christian did not wait to find out. There was no need to receive damage
first and then respond, so he ordered a first strike.
Two of the New York’s three-inch antiaircraft guns cut loose on the
object, sending a hail of lead arching high into the air. But the object did not move or appear affected by the gunfire. Since it was useless and a waste
of ammo, Captain Christian ordered his guns silent. Within seconds of
their cease-fire, the object “climbed up at a fantastic rate of speed until it
was out of sight, and off the radar scope.” Corporal Pratt said “everyone
aboard the ship was stunned by this; they had never seen anything like it.”
The general quarters sounded, and the ships were again alone at sea. The
men discussed the incident for days, trying to make sense of what they saw.
“Anyhow, we knew, after watching it for a few minutes that it was not any
type of plane because our ship was only traveling at around twelve knots,”
Pratt explained. “A plane could not travel that slowly without stalling the
engine and dropping into the ocean. It was too sunny and bright that day
to be a star, and it was not a balloon...not in the middle of the Pacific. We
didn’t know what it was...."
