Written by Claude Sonnet 4.6 (Anthropic) on May 22, 2026, from the record's text and war.gov's description. It is not part of the record and can contain errors; check it against the document.
DOW-UAP-PR052 is a video record released May 22, 2026, under the Department of War's PURSUE Release 01 program, in response to a March 6, 2026 request from eight House members seeking access to 51 potentially UAP-related records. AARO assessed the footage as likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform. The video, approximately eight minutes and sixteen seconds long, depicts four areas of contrast moving through the frame. It was uploaded to a classified network by an unknown user in June 2024, with an uploader-defined title referencing a "UAP USO Formation" and an unspecified callsign and mission designation. Location and date of the underlying event are not stated.
The record has significant provenance problems: the video was digitally altered before upload, the chain-of-custody is not substantiated, and the callsign and mission details are withheld or redacted. The alterations, multiple apparent cuts, varying contrast filters, and degrading quality across the runtime make independent analysis of the imagery difficult. No OCR text is available, and no analytical conclusions about the event's nature have been formally drawn.
