USCENTCOM MISREP from a 33rd Special Operations Squadron ISR aircraft over the Mediterranean on 25 January 2024 documenting a two-minute SWIR-only observation of a diamond-shaped UAP with a non-maneuvering probe traveling about 434 knots at FL200.
DOW-UAP-D25, Mission Report, Greece, January 2024
USCENTCOM MISREP from a 33rd Special Operations Squadron ISR aircraft over the Mediterranean on 25 January 2024 documenting a two-minute SWIR-only observation of a diamond-shaped UAP with a non-maneuvering probe traveling about 434 knots at FL200.
At 0509Z on 25 January 2024, a 33 SOS ISR aircraft operating out of LGLR (Larissa, Greece) on ATO 24-024 mission 4055 logged UAP Event Serial 250509ZJAN2024-CENTCOM 001 while in transit at FL250 on a 162 heading. The reporting Senior Airman (E-4) described one solid object, diamond-shaped with a non-maneuvering probe at the bottom, visible only on the AN/DAS-4 short-wave infrared sensor, flying at approximately 434 knots at FL200 on a westerly trajectory. The observer logged the object as maintaining a steady flight path with altitude changes but no trajectory change, assessed the encounter as benign, and recorded the event as lasting roughly two minutes before ending at 0511Z without further incident. The report was declassified by USCENTCOM Chief of Staff MG Richard A. Harrison on 24 October 2025 and approved for release to AARO on 28 October 2025.
AT 0509Z, (b)(1)1.4a OBSERVED 1X UAP WHILE IN TRANSIT. UPON INITIAL OBSERVATION, THE UAP WAS FLYING AT A SPEED OF APPROX 434 KNOTS.p.7
THE UAP APPEARED DIAMOND IN SHAPE WITH A NON-MANUEVERING PROBE AT THE BOTTOM. THE UAP ONLY APPEARED ON THE SWIR CAMERA.p.7
THE EVENT LASTED APPROX 2 MINUTES ENDING AT 0511Z, WITHOUT ANY OTHER INCIDENT OCCURING.p.7
UAP Description (e.g, size, shape, color, markings, recognizable features): ROUND DIAMOND SHAPE WITH STRAIGHT, NON MANUEVERABLE "TAIL"p.7
UAP Anomalous Characteristics/ Behaviors: MAINTAINED STEADY FLIGHT PATH, INCREASED AND DECREASED ALTITUDE PROFILE, DID NOT CHANGE TRAJECTORYp.7
UAP Signatures: SWIR WHTp.6
UAP Event Serial Number: 250509ZJAN2024-CENTCOM 001p.6
