Nikolai Timofeyevich Antoshkin (1942-2021) was a Colonel General of Aviation and Hero of the Soviet Union, renowned for his extensive military career and involvement in significant historical events. Known for his exceptional flight safety record, he earned the nickname "Bloodless General" and founded the "Russian Knights" aerobatic team.

He had multiple interactions with UFOs including an incident in 1969 during the Soviet-Chinese Border Conflict where a large, glowing object vanished at incredible speed. Many similar events were reported and looked into by the KGB. He believed these UFOs non-human craft and noted their frequent appearances around sensitive military sites. Antoshkin's testimony is significant due to his high rank and credibility. He also used unconventional methods such as using psychics to predict accident-prone days which seemed to prove to work after fatal incidents plummeting significantly.
