Official source context

The primary source record is DOW-UAP-PR141, an official Department of War video record titled “DOW-UAP-PR141, Unresolved UAP Report, Middle East, 2022.” According to the official source description: The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of 2 minutes and 36 seconds of video footage from an electro-optical (right) and infrared (left) sensor aboard a U.S. military platform in 2022. An accompanying mission report, DOW-UAP-D109, described the UAP as “traveling at various speeds between 80-180 miles per hour.” Video Description: 00:00-00:12: An area of contract enters the sensor field-of-view from the lower right of the frame. The sensor pans to track the area of contrast, keeping it generally within the center of the frame. 00:13-00:14: The sensor switches modes to display an infrared (left) and electro-optical (right) feed. 00:15-00:18: The object enters the frame from the lower right, transiting the sensor field-of-view and exiting from the upper left. 00:19-00:20: The sensor switches to infrared mode, panning to track an area of contrast. 00:21-00:27: The sensor switches modes to display an infrared (left) and electro-optical (right) feed. 00:28-00:52: The sensor switches to infrared mode, panning to track an area of contrast. 00:52-00:57: A second area of contrast briefly enters the sensor field-of-view. 00:58-01:16: The sensor pans to track an area of contrast. 01:17-01:21: The sensor switches modes to display an infrared (left) and electro-optical (right) feed. The sensor pans to track the object. The object leaves the sensor field-of-view from the left edge of the frame. 01:22-01:27: No content. 01:28-01:31: The sensor switches to infrared mode. No content. 01:32-02:36: The area of contrast enters the sensor field-of-view from the lower left of the frame. The sensor pans to track the area of contrast, intermittently losing contact with it.

Notes

Primary asset context comes from DOW-UAP-PR141. Linked report context comes from DOW-UAP-D109; website copy keeps both source contexts separate.

Linked source records

This media item is linked to DOW-UAP-D109, DOW-UAP-D109, Mission Report, Middle East, 2022. The linked report context is separate from the primary media record and should not be treated as directly recorded in the primary media unless supported by the media description.

This record matters because it documents repeated sensor-mode changes and a brief second contrast area within a longer 2022 tracking sequence.

Limitations and interpretation

The official description is informational and does not constitute an analytical judgment or factual determination about the event. The linked mission report’s motion and speed characterizations are subjective operator reporting and remain separate from the sensor description.
