Unresolved UAP Report, East China Sea, 2023

This is a video record, DOW-UAP-PR148, submitted by U.S. Indo-Pacific Command to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) documenting an unresolved UAP encounter in the East China Sea in 2023. The file consists of 59 seconds of infrared sensor footage recorded aboard a U.S. military platform. The accompanying description indicates the sensor operator tracked an area of contrast, keeping it centered in frame for roughly 42 seconds before increasing magnification during the final 12 seconds while continuing to track the object. No audio, crew commentary, or narrative report accompanies the clip.

The record contains only a technical description of sensor behavior and explicitly disclaims any analytical or investigative conclusions about the object's nature. No metadata on platform type, altitude, range, or object characteristics (size, speed, heading) is included in the release. This is consistent with AARO's standard practice of releasing raw sensor footage from military reporting channels without accompanying analysis, leaving the case formally unresolved. No redaction markings are noted in the available material, though the absence of contextual data may reflect withheld operational details rather than an incomplete original report.
