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, “17 Sept 2020 [CALLSIGN] observes UAP,” is likely derived from a full-motion video camera aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the United States Central Command area of responsibility in 2020. A user uploaded this video to a classified network in September 2020. Video Duration: 00:04:13

AI visual analysis

Black-and-white infrared/FLIR aerial view from altitude, dominated by thick layered cloud cover with patches of terrain visible through gaps. A small compass 'N' marker appears near the right side; thick black redaction bars cover portions of the top and edges of the frame. No distinct airborne object is visible in either sampled frame — the imagery mostly documents cloud texture.
