Official Description
On March 6, 2026, eight members of the U.S. House of Representatives requested access to 51 potentially UAP-related records allegedly held by the Department of War and the Intelligence Community. The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) identified a collection of responsive materials held on a classified network. Many of these materials lack a substantiated chain-of-custody. AARO assesses that this video, whose uploader-defined title is, “05 September 2020 [CALLSIGN] UAP,” is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the United States Central Command area of responsibility in 2020. A user uploaded this video to a classified network in September 2020.

Key Findings
This record is an AARO-generated description of a classified infrared sensor video titled '05 September 2020 [CALLSIGN] UAP,' uploaded to a classified network in September 2020. The video shows a nearly five-minute recording in which brief areas of contrast transit the frame on three occasions, each lasting approximately three to four seconds. AARO notes the materials lack a substantiated chain-of-custody and was identified in response to a March 2026 congressional request for UAP-related records.
Analyst Notes
The chain-of-custody for this video is explicitly noted as unsubstantiated by AARO, significantly limiting its evidential value. The observable phenomenon consists only of brief, ambiguous 'areas of contrast' transiting an infrared frame — no shape, size, altitude, or speed data is provided. The callsign in the title is redacted. AARO's description explicitly disclaims any analytical judgment or factual determination about the event's nature. The video could reflect sensor artifacts, birds, debris, or other mundane phenomena.
