An AARO-released Department of War record describing a 4-minute 49-second infrared video, uploader-titled "May 05 2020 Gulf of Arabia [CALLSIGN] (Platform) Dual UAP," assessed as likely from a U.S. military IR sensor in CENTCOM's area of responsibility in 2020.
DOW-UAP-PR095, "May 05 2020 Gulf of Arabia [CALLSIGN] (Platform) Dual UAP"
An AARO-released Department of War record describing a 4-minute 49-second infrared video, uploader-titled "May 05 2020 Gulf of Arabia [CALLSIGN] (Platform) Dual UAP," assessed as likely from a U.S. military IR sensor in CENTCOM's area of responsibility in 2020.
This is a Department of War / AARO disclosure (DOW-UAP-PR095, released 5/22/26) responding to a March 6, 2026 request by eight U.S. House members for access to 51 potentially UAP-related records. AARO identified responsive materials on a classified network, many lacking a substantiated chain-of-custody, and assesses this video is likely derived from an infrared sensor aboard a U.S. military platform operating within U.S. Central Command's area of responsibility in 2020, uploaded to a classified network in May 2020. The 4:49 video shows a sensor tracking and zooming on an area of contrast that resolves into multiple distinct areas of contrast that move in and out of frame before leaving at the lower right edge at 01:47-01:51, with no content from 01:52 onward. AARO notes that DOW-UAP-PR093 and DOW-UAP-PR095 share an uploader-defined title and depict highly similar subject matter but are distinct, not duplicates.
