This is a declassified SECRET//NOFORN Mission Report (MISREP) from the 89th Attack Squadron (89 ATKS), 432nd Air Expeditionary Wing, documenting an armed reconnaissance ISR mission conducted over Syria on 30-31 July 2022 under Operation INHERENT RESOLVE. The 20.9-hour mission, launched from Muwaffaq Salti Air Base (OJMS) in Jordan, included a UAP observation at 310239Z JUL22 in which an unidentified aerial phenomenon was observed moving from north to south in less than one minute in the vicinity of grid 37SFU27 in kill box 9. The report was declassified by MG Richard A. Harrison, USCENTCOM Chief of Staff, on 8 October 2025 for release to AARO.
Key Findings
→At 310239Z JUL22, an ISR asset observed a UAP event in vicinity of grid 37SFU27 (KP 9) over Syria; the UAP moved from north to south and the entire event lasted less than one minute.
→The reporting asset was at 19,359 feet altitude, traveling at 116 knots when the UAP was observed.
→UAP signatures field is recorded as 'No,' and UAP physical state, altitude, velocity, trajectory, and number of UAP sighted fields are left blank or unpopulated, indicating very limited characterization data was captured.
→The mission was an IMINT/SIGINT armed reconnaissance sortie tasked by TF CHOSIN, with full motion video exploited by DGS1, totaling 20.9 mission hours and 2 total taskings prosecuted.
→The broader ISR mission observed multiple armed dismounted personnel, vehicles, possible technical vehicles, and 2x inactive TELARs with 3 rockets loaded at Dayr Az Zar Parking Airfield, providing significant contextual threat environment detail.
Analyst Notes
The UAP section contains minimal characterization data: UAP physical state, number sighted, altitude, velocity, and trajectory fields are all blank or marked with dashes. The event lasted less than one minute and no sensor signatures were recorded ('UAP Signatures: No'). Aircraft callsign, tail number, and asset type are all redacted under 1.4a/1.4g exemptions, preventing independent corroboration of the observing platform. No FMV file name is listed for the UAP event specifically, though full motion video was exploited by DGS1 for the broader mission. The report is a single-platform observation with no corroborating sensor data documented within this report.
