This footage is labeled by its uploader as "[CALLSIGN] (Mission) UAP," a caveat AARO keeps with the file. AARO assesses that the video is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within the United States Indo-Pacific Command area of responsibility.

A user uploaded the video to a classified network in June 2024, and the Department of War is the originating agency. AARO says many of the responsive materials found on the classified network lack a substantiated chain of custody, and the released file is redacted. The description does not identify the object beyond the uploader-defined title.

What the sensor shows, as described in the release:

This media was digitally altered prior to its upload to a classified network, and is presented as received.

00:01-00:04: A black screen appears featuring the phrase, “[CALLSIGN] recording - 8x speed possible changes of shape stabilized and enhanced 38 secs.”
00:05-00:41: An area of contrast remains centered within the frame. Visual elements of the sensor display enter and exit the frame intermittently throughout.
00:42-00:45: A black screen appears featuring the phrase, “UAP recording original speed stabilized, sharpened, contrast enhanced 5 min.”
00:46-05:45: An area of contrast remains generally within the center of the frame. The sensor cycles contrast modes multiple times.
05:46-05:48: A black screen appears featuring the phrase, “UAP recording original clip 5 minutes.”
05:49-10:48: The sensor pans to track an area of contrast keeping it generally within the center of the frame. The overall quality of the footage progressively degrades throughout.
