DOW-UAP-PR078, "2 November 2020 [CALLSIGN] [CALLSIGN] Observes and tracks UAP 2 of 2"
Key moments
Official description
On March 6, 2026, eight members of the U.S. House of Representatives requested access to 51 potentially UAP-related records allegedly held by the Department of War and the Intelligence Community. The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) identified a collection of responsive materials held on a classified network. Many of these materials lack a substantiated chain-of-custody. AARO assesses that this video, whose uploader-defined title is, “2 November 2020 [CALLSIGN] [CALLSIGN] Observes and tracks UAP 2 of 2,” is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the United States Central Command area of responsibility in November 2020. A user uploaded this video to a classified network in November 2020. Video Duration: 00:04:58
✦ AI visual analysis
Grayscale infrared video with a blue HUD overlay: center crosshair, four corner tracking brackets, and a small square marker offset above center. The frame is filled with diffuse, hazy cloud or atmospheric texture crossed by faint diagonal scan-line streaks. A subtle, elongated dark smudge sits near the crosshair but has no clearly defined edges or shape. Black rectangular redaction boxes cover portions of the frame border.
