Detail
This Department of War video file documents a UAP report submitted by U.S. Central Command to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) in 2023. The footage runs 43 seconds and was captured by an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform. An accompanying mission report (DoW-UAP-D23) mentions that a UAP was observed during the mission.
The video description tracks an area of contrast that stays mostly in the top-left quarter, passes through the center as the sensor pans, leaves the frame on the left around the 29-second mark, and is not reacquired through the end of the footage. This description is provided for informational purposes only and should not be interpreted as any analytical judgment or conclusion. The material was released through the PURSUE declassification.
