DOW-UAP-D64, Mission Report, Iran, November 2020

▮ AI SYNOPSIS · Sonnet 4.6

DOW-UAP-D64 is a Mission Report (MISREP) filed by the 482nd Attack Squadron (482 ATKS), 432nd Air Expeditionary Wing, covering a U.S. Air Force reconnaissance sortie flown on November 2–3, 2020, out of OKAS. The approximately 20-hour, 42-minute mission supported NAVCENT in the Arabian Gulf, Strait of Hormuz, and Gulf of Oman under a redacted operation name. The reporting operator, flying at FL220, observed two UAP via full-motion video (FMV) using an ANDAS4 targeting pod: the first at 2143Z at an unknown altitude, the second five minutes later at 2148Z, traveling northwest. The aircraft was also hailed on guard frequency by Iranian Air Defense at 1012Z with no mission impact.

The report is notable as a firsthand sensor-based UAP observation logged during an active ISR mission in a strategically sensitive area. The primary operator's callsign, aircraft type, tail number, grid coordinates, and the supported operation name are all redacted under exemption 1.4a. No sensor imagery or exploitation products are included in the release. Haze is noted as having precluded some IMINT collection, which may bear on the quality of available FMV evidence. The report was declassified by USCENTCOM and approved for release to AARO on March 16, 2026.

Redactions present in this record. Black bars protect identities of eyewitnesses, locations of facilities, or non-UAP-related sensitive material.

This document is a Mission Report (MISREP), a standardized reporting form the U.S. Military uses to record the circumstances surrounding its operations. U.S. military services often use MISREPs to report Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena (UAP) to AARO. The GENTEXT, or “general text” section of these reports often contains important qualitative, contextual information, distinguishing it from the more quantitative, or numerical, data found elsewhere in the report. A U.S. military operator reported observing two UAP on November 2, 2020, at 2143Z and at 2148Z. The first observation occurred at an unknown altitude. The reporter described the second UAP’s direction of travel as proceeding to the northwest. All descriptive and estimative language contained in this report reflects the reporter’s subjective interpretation at the time of the event. Such characterizations should not be interpreted as a conclusive indication of the presence or absence of any intrinsic object features or performance characteristics.
