Official description

AARO assesses that this video, whose uploader-defined title is, “Hi-Res: [CALLSIGN] Observes UAP on 25SEP19 at 2135Z,” is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the United States Central Command area of responsibility in 2019. A user uploaded this video to a classified network in October 2019. Video Duration: 00:04:59

About this type of document

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.

AI visual analysis

Greyscale infrared sensor imagery dominated by a soft, diffuse texture resembling cloud or smoke, with diagonal light and dark banding. A teal crosshair reticle with corner brackets and an 'N' north marker is centered in the frame, but no discrete object clearly stands out against the haze.
