DVIDS official page text
The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of two minutes and 57 seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2023. An accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D33, described the UAP as flying near the surface of the ocean and making multiple “90-degree turns” at approximately 80 miles per hour.
Official page text
- Video description: 00:04: An area of contrast enters the sensor field-of-view from the bottom left quarter of the screen. 00:07-00:19: The area of contrast moves back and forth horizontally across the field-of-view as the sensor pans to track it. 00:20-01:00: The area of contrast remains generally centered within the sensor field-of-view. 01:00-02:01: The sensor designates the area of contrast with a blue reticle, synchronizing its motion with the area of contrast’s relative position. 02:02-02:21: The sensor engages a contrast filter to better differentiate the area of contrast from the background. 02:22: The area of contrast becomes indistinguishable against the background, and the reticle drops its lock. 02:27-02:57: After losing lock, the sensor rapidly cycles zoom levels and contrast thresholds.
- The title marks this as unresolved, so the page should not present it as conclusively attributed.

The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of 24 seconds of video footage from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2023. An accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D35, described the UAP as small and circular, flying near the surface of the ocean toward land.

- Video description: 00:02: The sensor narrows its field-of-view to zoom in on an area of contrast near the center of the screen. 00:03-00:19: The sensor tracks the area of contrast as it moves against the ocean background. 00:20: As the background scene transitions from being predominantly water to land, the area of contrast becomes indistinguishable.

Document summary
A declassified USCENTCOM mission report (MISREP) for an October 2023 ISR sortie flown from Greece. At 0035Z, while en route to a target, the aircrew spotted a UAP flying just above the ocean surface that made multiple sharp 90-degree turns at an estimated 80 mph; it was lost from the feed about three minutes later.
Official page text
- The UAP appeared seemingly circular but was too small to make out details.
- It flew just above the sea and made multiple sharp 90-degree turns at ~80 mph.
- Recorded physical state "Solid"; not under intelligent control; assessed benign.
Official note
- Unit, callsigns and exact coordinates are redacted; the object was too small to characterize.
