FBI Photo B015

▮ AI SYNOPSIS · Sonnet 4.6

FBI Photo B015 is a one-page PDF released May 8, 2026, under the PURSUE Release 01 program. It contains a single still image captured by a U.S. military system in late 2025 over the western United States and submitted by the FBI to AARO. The monochrome, grainy image shows a simplified central crosshair with two small, dark, circular objects visible near the upper right quadrant of the frame. The operator was unable to positively identify the objects. The embedded timestamp reads 12/31/99 18:20:22, which the report acknowledges is erroneous due to the system's date/time not being properly configured.

The document is notable for what it lacks: no accompanying mission report was provided, and the original imagery was redacted prior to submission to AARO, limiting analytical utility. The incorrect timestamp undermines independent chronological verification. The two circular objects remain uncharacterized. The record represents a minimally documented military UAP observation, with core contextual information — platform type, mission details, and full imagery — either missing or withheld.

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

The Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon (UAP) to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of a still image derived from a U.S. military system in 2025. The original imagery was altered with redactions before being submitted to AARO. An accompanying mission report was not provided. The operator reported that they were unable to positively identify the UAP. The date in the image is incorrect due to system date/time not being set. Narrative Description: The monochrome image displays a grainy texture with a simplified central crosshair. Two small, dark, circular objects are visible near the center of the frame in the upper right quadrant. This narrative description is provided for informational purposes only. Readers should not interpret any part of this description as reflecting an analytical judgment, investigative conclusion, or factual determination regarding the described event’s validity, nature, or significance.
