Analysis

A diamond-shaped object with a straight "tail" or probe hanging from its bottom flew past at 434 knots. It appeared at 0509Z on January 25, 2024, visible only on the SWIR (Short-Wave Infrared) camera -- no other sensor picked it up. For two minutes the crew watched it at 20,000 feet as it rose and fell in altitude without changing its heading. The aircraft was 5,000 feet above it. Then it was gone.

Key Findings
  • UAP described as "round diamond shape with a straight, non-maneuverable tail/probe at the bottom"
  • Speed approximately 434 knots at initial observation
  • Object appeared only on SWIR camera (not visible on other sensors)
  • Event lasted approximately 2 minutes (0509Z to 0511Z)
  • UAP maintained steady flight path, increased and decreased altitude profile, did not change trajectory
  • At FL200 (20,000 feet) kinetic altitude; friendly aircraft at FL250 (25,000 feet)
  • Observer (E-4 rank) assessed the UAP as benign with SWIR white signature
  • No effects on persons or equipment; no intelligent control determined
