DOW-UAP-D101, Rapport d'information de renseignement, Rapport UAP non résolu, golfe d'Oman, 2021
Description officielle
Ce document est un rapport d'information de renseignement (Intelligence Information Report, IIR), le format normalisé principal utilisé par le Département de la Guerre, les services militaires et l'ensemble de la communauté du renseignement pour diffuser des informations de renseignement non évaluées, provenant de sources humaines (HUMINT), de sources ouvertes et d'activités de collecte sur le terrain. Les IIR ne constituent pas des produits de renseignement finalisés ; ils servent d'intrants pour des évaluations de renseignement toutes sources ultérieures. Ce rapport accompagne les séquences vidéo contenues dans les dossiers DOW-UAP-PR117 à DOW-UAP-PR122. Ce rapport documente une observation faite par l'équipage d'un AC-130 Gunship des forces d'opérations spéciales américaines (USSOF), le 8 septembre 2021, au cours d'un exercice d'entraînement nocturne à tir réel au-dessus du golfe d'Oman. L'équipage a signalé avoir observé pour la première fois deux phénomènes anomaux non identifiés (UAP) après le largage d'une fusée éclairante activée par l'eau. Le rapport décrit les UAP comme étant stationnaires, d'environ quatre pieds de diamètre, à une altitude de 0 à 20 pieds au-dessus de la surface de l'eau. Tout au long de la mission d'entraînement, l'équipage a signalé avoir observé environ 25 occurrences de phénomènes similaires via le capteur infrarouge, les décrivant comme des « orbes froids ». Les estimations visuelles de l'équipage quant à la vitesse apparente des UAP varient de 250 à 1 300 mph. Le rapport qualifie le comportement des UAP de « manœuvrant de manière agressive », « volant selon différentes formations », et semblant réagir aux déploiements des systèmes d'armement embarqués de l'aéronef. L'équipage a indiqué ne pas avoir pu capturer de séquences vidéo des phénomènes, l'enregistreur vidéo numérique de l'aéronef n'étant pas fonctionnel au moment de l'incident. L'ensemble du langage descriptif et estimatif contenu dans ce rapport reflète l'interprétation subjective de l'auteur du signalement au moment de l'événement. De telles caractérisations ne doivent pas être interprétées comme une indication concluante de la présence ou de l'absence de caractéristiques intrinsèques ou de performances de l'objet.
✦ Résumé IA
Un Intelligence Information Report (IIR) de 7 pages, produit par l'Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC), classifié SECRET//NOFORN, daté du 27 avril 2022 (groupe date-heure du message 271329ZAPR22), décrivant une rencontre UAP survenue le 8 septembre 2021. Un avion canonnier AC-130 des forces spéciales américaines, lors d'un entraînement de nuit à munitions réelles au-dessus du Golfe d'Oman près d'un emplacement de grille MGRS caviardé, a largué une fusée éclairante activée par l'eau comme cible factice. Pendant que le Combat Systems Officer effectuait des balayages annexes avec le capteur Electro-Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) de l'appareil, deux orbes "froides" d'environ quatre pieds de diamètre ont été observées en vol stationnaire entre 0 et 20 pieds au-dessus de l'eau près de la fusée éclairante, pendant environ 15 secondes ; lorsque l'équipage a tiré avec le canon de 105 mm de l'appareil, les deux objets se sont rapidement éloignés sans changer d'altitude. Au cours de la mission, l'équipage a enregistré environ 25 occurrences UAP distinctes en infrarouge (en modes white-hot et black-hot), notamment des objets volant en formation coordonnée lâche, une formation distincte de trois objets, et d'autres effectuant des manœuvres erratiques. À l'aide du TACTOOL de l'appareil, l'équipage a chronométré des vitesses observées comprises entre 250 et 1 300 mph sans moyen de propulsion visible. Les efforts pour préserver l'intégralité de la vidéo EO/IR ont échoué après que le Digital Video Recorder de l'appareil est tombé en panne et que les images ont été corrompues ; un extrait vidéo et un jeu de diapositives PowerPoint de six vidéos ont été joints séparément. Le rapport précise que la source avait un accès direct à l'information et restait disponible pour un nouveau contact.

On 8 September 2021 a United States Special Operations Forces (lJSSOF)AC-130 Gunship was conducting live fire training the Gulf of Oman in the \licinity of (IVO) //MGRS: 40REN6 I during period of darkness, The AC-130 first observed Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAPs) when the aircraft dropped a water-activated Rare to use as a mock target. The AC-130 entered an otl>it around the flare and the Combat Systems Officer (CSO) conducted collateral scans with the aircraft's Electro Opticall1nfrared (EO/IR) sensor IVO the flare. When tile CSO slewed the sensor in IR mode back to the !1are they observed two approximately four.foot diameter cold orbs between o to 20 feet above the surface of the water stat onary over tlle 11are for approximately 15 seconds. After those 15 seconds passed, the CSO puled lhe trigger firing the aircraft's 105mm C9nnon. Immediately upon puling the trigg r, during th sight delay between trigger pull and the cannon's recoil, the CSO obseNed the pair o UAPs rapidly lly away from the flare and out of the sensor eed without chang ng altitude, - SUBSEQUENT OBSERVATIONS. The AC-130 crew observed approximately 2.5 iistances of UA'Ps viewed in IR as C<lld oms In both white-1$-hot an blaek-1$-hol mode during the sortie. Two UAPs were observed ffying in a loose but coordinated formation increasing and decreasing a • de like a wave whle•maneuvering a.round , over, and under each other in a manner similar to how dolphins playfully swim in a pod. (SOURCE COMMENl: They [The UAPs] knew they were flying together). UAPs were also separately observed llylng In a formation of three and sep ately observed flying erratically and maneuvering aggressively. The attached videos depict a i.moothly slewing EOllR sen1,0r or a stationary EO/IR sensor with multiple UAPsdaltlng around the sensor feed . The AC-130's crew attelTIQted to save entirety of the EO/IR footage of the UAP obServations but the aircraffs Digital Video ReC()rder (DVR) inexp ·cably failed and the 11ideo data became corrupted. - ESTIMATED SPEED. The CSO calculated tne UAP's approximate 5peeds using lhe aircraft's TACTOOL and clbcl(ed their rnaxirnum observed R\Bneu11arin9 speed at 1300 mdes per hour (MPH) and the UAPs minimum observed manewering speed at 250 MPH.

On 8 Septe ber 2021 a United States Special Operations orces (USSOF) AC-130 Gunship was conducting live fire training the Gulf a( Oman in Uie vicinity of (IVO) //MGRS. ◄0REN6 I during period of darkness. The AC-130 first observed Unidentified Aerial Phenomenon (UAPs) when the ·rcraft dropped a waler-activated flare to use as a mock target. TheAC-130 entered an orbit around the flare and the Comba Systems Officer (CSO) conducted collateral scans wrth the aircraft's EJectro Optical/Infrared (EO/IR) $e0$or IVO Ule flare, When the CSO $lewed th sen or in IR mode back to the flare they observed two approximately four-foot diameter cold orbs between O to 20 feet above the suliace of the water stationary over the flare for approximately 15 seconds. After those 15 seconds passed, the CSO pul ed the trigger fir ng the aircraft's 105mm cannon. Immediately upon puUin9 the trigger, during the slight delay between trigger pull and the cannon's reool, Ute CSO observed the pair or UAP rapidly rty away from the flare and ou of the sensor feed without changing altitude. •uaSEQUENT OBSERVATIONS. The AC-130 crew observed approx11nate1y 25 Instances of UAPs vie.....ed ,n IR as cold orl)s in both white,.,i:,,-hot an black-1$-<hot mode during e wrtie, Two UAP$ were observed fly,ing in a loose but coordinat d forma ion increasing and decreasing altitude !like a wave whJe maneuvering aroirnd, over. and under each other in a manner similar to how dolphins playfully sv.im in a pod.
