DOW-UAP-PR043 is a 2025 incident report submitted by U.S. Africa Command (AFRICOM) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), released on 2026-05-08. The sole evidence is two seconds of infrared sensor footage captured from an unspecified U.S. military platform over or near Djibouti. The footage shows a small, low-contrast object moving laterally across the sensor field of view, exiting toward the bottom right. No oral or written description was provided by the reporting personnel alongside the footage.
The record is notable primarily for what it lacks: no sensor metadata, no platform identification, no altitude or speed estimates, no witness statements, and no AARO analytical finding are included in the release. The two-second clip is insufficient to determine object size, range, velocity, or nature. The absence of any accompanying description from the reporter limits investigative utility significantly. The record fits a recurring pattern in the PURSUE release of minimally documented submissions forwarded to AARO without resolution, leaving the incident formally unresolved.
