DOW-UAP-PR131, Unresolved UAP Report, Iraq, 2022 is indexed as a Department of War record with incident date 2022 and location Iraq. The United States Central Command submitted a report of an unidentified anomalous phenomenon to the All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) consisting of a still image derived from an infrared system aboard a U.S. military system in 2022. An accompanying mission report, DOW-UAP-D106, described the UAP as flying sporadically at various speeds between 80-180 miles per hour. Image Description: This image features two areas of contrast. One appears near the center of the sensor display. Another appears in the top third of the frame. The area of contrast in the top third of the frame appears elongated and is followed by a visible trail. These features suggest motion across the focal plane from the top right to the bottom left of the sensor field-of-view. The apparent trail is consistent with known image-compression and processing effects and does not necessarily represent a physical feature. This image description is provided for informational purposes only.
