FBI Photo B24
FBI submitted to AARO a single redacted still image from a U.S. military system depicting an unidentified object above a crosshair reticle, with no accompanying mission report.
The FBI forwarded one still image to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) drawn from a U.S. military system in 2025. The imagery was redacted before submission and no mission report accompanied it. The operator could not positively identify the object, and the on-image timestamp of 12/31/99 18:19:40 is invalid because the system clock had not been set. The narrative description records a monochrome, grainy frame with a central crosshair and a single dark, irregular-shaped object just above the reticle center.
