What happened
Complete the game to 100% and unidentified craft appear at fixed spots: hovering over Mount Chiliad in a thunderstorm, above the Fort Zancudo military base, and near Sandy Shores. They are solid, scripted objects rather than glitches, and finding them all became the standard victory lap for completionists.
Why it matters
Rockstar gated its flashiest secret behind total completion, which recast finishing the game as the beginning of the hunt rather than the end of it.
How we know
The post-completion UFO sightings and their locations are documented in GamesRadar's easter egg guide, which walks each site and its conditions.
