Official Description
This document is a Mission Report (MISREP), a standardized reporting form the U.S. Military uses to record the circumstances surrounding its operations. U.S. military services often use MISREPs to report Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) to AARO. The GENTEXT, or “general text” section of these reports often contains important qualitative, contextual information, distinguishing it from the more quantitative, or numerical, data found elsewhere in the report. A U.S. military operator reported observing one UAP, estimating its speed as “approximately 434 knots (499 mph)”. The observer described the UAP as diamond-shaped, with a non-maneuvering probe at the bottom. The observer noted that the UAP was only visible when viewed via an onboard Short-Wave Infrared (SWIR) sensor. The observer reported that the event occurred over a duration of approximately two minutes. All descriptive and estimative language contained in this report reflects the reporter’s subjective interpretation at the time of the event. Such characterizations should not be interpreted as a conclusive indication of the presence or absence of any intrinsic object features or performance characteristics.
This is a declassified USCENTCOM/AFSOC Mission Report (MISREP) documenting an ISR mission flown from LGLR (Larissa Air Base, Greece) on January 25, 2024. The mission included a UAP observation at 0509Z lasting approximately two minutes, in which the crew observed a diamond-shaped object flying at an estimated 434 knots, visible only on the SWIR camera. The remainder of the mission involved FMV and SIGINT collection over a ground surveillance tasking area.

Analyst Notes
The UAP was observed by a single aircrew member (Senior Airman/E-4) with no third-party corroboration. The object was only detectable via SWIR camera and no sensor interrogation (radar, RF) was conducted, substantially limiting characterization of the object. All kinematic data (speed, altitude, trajectory) is explicitly labeled as estimated, not measured. The observer assessed the UAP as 'Benign' and noted no advanced capabilities. The approximately 434-knot speed estimate and diamond shape are consistent with possible conventional aircraft or balloon at altitude when viewed through an infrared sensor, though no identification was made. Aircraft type, tail number, and callsign are redacted, preventing independent verification.
