DOW-UAP-D078, Notional Map: Western United States Event
▮ AI SYNOPSIS · Sonnet 4.6
DOW-UAP-D078 is an unclassified notional map produced by the Department of War, released June 12, 2026, depicting four UAP incidents reported by U.S. federal law enforcement special agents over several days in October 2023 in the western United States. The document describes four distinct observations: (1) an orange "mother orb" launching smaller red orbs, (2) a large "fiery orb" observed against a ridgeline at approximately 1,000 yards, (3) a thin, dark kite-shaped object with one red and one white light at close range, and (4) a translucent kite-shaped object also at close range.
The document is explicitly notional — locations, distances, and object sizes are not to scale and do not reflect actual observer or phenomena positions. Imagery was generated using a Defense Department AI tool. No specific locations, agent identities, or operational context are provided. The record is notable for documenting multiple distinct UAP morphologies reported by credentialed federal law enforcement witnesses within a compressed timeframe, and for being released as part of the PURSUE program's first declassification batch.
