Official Description
The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of one minute and five seconds of video footage captured via multiple sensor modalities aboard a U.S. military platform in 2024. An accompanying mission report, DoW-UAP-D7, described the UAP as “diamond-shaped” and moving at approximately 434 knots. The observer also reported that the UAP was only detectable via short-wave infrared (SWIR) sensor. Video Description: The screen is split into two viewing areas for the first ten seconds of the video, with the right side displaying electro-optical footage and the left side displaying SWIR footage. 00:04: An area of contrast becomes distinguishable against the background in the center of the right frame. 00:10: The display shifts to a full-screen view of the SWIR feed to better focus on the area of contrast. 00:55: The area of contrast remains generally within the center of the sensor field-of-view. The area of contrast visually resembles an inverted teardrop with a vertically linear trailing mass suspended below. 00:56: The operator switches the sensor modality to visible spectrum, losing the subject against the background. 00:57-01:05: The operator switches the sensor modality to SWIR (Black-Hot) but does not reacquire the area of contrast.

Key Findings
A U.S. Central Command sensor video submitted to AARO depicting an unidentified anomalous phenomenon observed over Greece in January 2024. The UAP was reportedly visible only via short-wave infrared (SWIR) sensor and described in an accompanying mission report as diamond-shaped and traveling at approximately 434 knots. The video runs 1 minute and 5 seconds and was captured from a U.S. military platform using multiple sensor modalities.
Analyst Notes
The object's shape description ('diamond-shaped') comes from an accompanying mission report (DoW-UAP-D7) rather than from AARO analytical judgment; the video description itself explicitly disclaims any analytical conclusion. The area of contrast visible in the SWIR feed is described only as resembling an inverted teardrop, not a diamond. The object was not reacquired after the final sensor switch, limiting the total usable observation window. Single-platform sensor capture with no independent corroboration mentioned.
