Department of War Shares 2019 Infrared Clip of Unidentified Object Over Atlantic
The Department of War has made public a forward‑looking infrared recording taken in 2019 that shows an unknown aerial platform moving above the Atlantic Ocean. The footage was released under the All‑domain Anomaly Resolution Office’s PURSUE policy, which governs how such material is examined and cleared for distribution when it does not threaten national security. The clip, stored with the filename “flir-uap”, was gathered by a forward‑looking infrared sensor mounted on a U.S. Navy aircraft.
In the video a small, dark shape stands out against the cooler sea surface. It travels at a steady rate, displaying no visible engines, wings, or other control mechanisms. According to the sensor read‑outs the object held an altitude of roughly twenty thousand feet and maintained a speed of about one hundred fifty knots. The recording ends after two minutes and seventeen seconds when the target leaves the field of view.
The Department of War noted that the platform’s characteristics—particularly the absence of a detectable heat signature and the ability to make sudden direction changes—do not correspond to any known aircraft or unmanned system currently in the inventory. Because the object cannot be linked to a known origin, the report refrains from speculating on its nature or ownership.
Analysts with the All‑domain Anomaly Resolution Office observed that the behavior seen in this clip matches patterns reported in other unidentified aerial phenomena incidents from the same geographic area and time frame. Under the PURSUE framework the office may now request additional data from the Navy squadron that captured the imagery, conduct interviews with the aircrew, and compare the flight path with information gathered by other sensors.
Future steps could involve tasking orbiting satellites or ground‑based radar installations to look for similar returns, thereby building a broader data set for analysis. The release is presented as part of an ongoing effort to increase transparency concerning unexplained aerial encounters while preserving essential operational safeguards.
