This redacted Department of War PDF is an unresolved UAP report submitted by United States Central Command to AARO, consisting of a still image from a U.S. military system in 2022. The source title identifies the case as Kuwait, May 2022, while the incident location field lists Iraq and the incident date as N/A. The original reporter digitally altered the image by adding a red line around an area of interest before sending it to AARO.

An accompanying mission report described the UAP as moving from north to northeast, and the operator reported they could not positively identify it. The image description notes an encircled, elongated area of contrast in the top left quarter, increasing in intensity along its length from top left to bottom right. The description is informational only and is not an analytical judgment or conclusion about the event.
