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, “Hi-Res: [CALLSIGN] Observes UAPs on 23SEP19 at 1715Z,” 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 November 2019. Video Duration: 00:04:51

AI visual analysis

High-resolution black-and-white aerial/EO surveillance footage of a coastal harbor area, showing a curving breakwater or causeway, a calm water channel, a small vessel, and clustered buildings along the shoreline. An amber/orange HUD overlay includes a centered crosshair, corner bracket markers, and an 'N' north indicator. This appears to be establishing/context imagery of the surrounding maritime facility rather than a close-up of the tracked object.
