What This Document Contains

• A summary of an ISR mission launched from OJMS that conducted full-motion video (FMV) and signals intelligence (SIGINT) collection on multiple taskings over Syria.

• At 1559Z, the sensor operator observed an “UNIDENTIFIED ARRIEAL PHENOMENON,” which was logged as UAP 1; the body of the report refers to a separate attachment for details.

• Administrative metadata showing the report was originally classified SECRET//REL TO USA, FVEY, declassified on 24 October 2025, and reviewed under USCENTCOM’s Mandatory Declassification Review (MDR).

Source: OCR Narrative page 1, Admin classification block, and “Approved for Release to AARO” annotation on pages 1–3.

Key Observations

“AT 1559Z, (b)(1)1.4a OBSERVED AN UNIDENTIFIED ARRIEAL PHENOMENON (SEE UAP 1).” The term “ARRIEAL” is likely a typographical error for “AERIAL.” The platform, sensor, or observer is redacted under exemption (b)(1)1.4a. No characteristics, flight profile, or sensor data are described in the released text.

Source: OCR Narrative page 1, lines containing the UAP observation.

Context & Significance

This MISREP originated from Operation INHERENT RESOLVE, the U.S.-led campaign against ISIS, and was generated by a unit assigned to Air Force Special Operations Command (AFSOC) under U.S. Central Command (USCENTCOM). The document’s explicit approval for release to AARO places it within the formal U.S. government UAP investigation framework, indicating that the sighting was deemed sufficiently unusual to warrant examination by the designated UAP office.
