CASE FILE FPR-7
The FBI Agent's Thermal Video of Two Objects - Case FPR-7
2026-10-25 · Declassified UAP records
FBI-UAP-PR007, "Slow-moving Objects," was released on 7 August 2026. Per the release: "A U.S. Government Special Agent captured this video footage via hand-held optical thermal imaging device during a 2026 incident in the western United States, as described in FBI-UAP-D032. The footage features two, slow-moving 'black-hot' areas of contrast, visible in infrared imaging."
The accompanying FBI FD-302 (FBI-UAP-D032) records that "at approximately time 1604 he was alerted to an RF detection at [redacted] at 10K MSL for 5-10s," followed by a request to observe at bearing 58 degrees. Using a thermal optical device, "he saw a black object in the sky. It was not moving fast." He then "saw a second object to the right of the first." "The objects were moving together at the same speed. Both were black hot."
Total observation time was approximately 5-10 minutes. He was "unable to estimate an altitude or speed." The objects "were above the mountain line," moving roughly southeast, and "given the distance of the objects it was difficult" to determine their direction of travel. The interview itself is our Case F-32.
Presentation note: the released file shows a wide scope image inside a larger frame. In our video it is cropped to the centre of the scope picture so it is visible on a phone. Nothing else was changed.

FBI FD-302 — Interview Regarding Two Slow-Moving Objects Observed on Thermal Optics (2026)
Date of entry ██████/2026
██████ Special Agent ██████, ██████ ██████ telephone number ██████, email address ██████ was interviewed at ██████ ██████ ██████ Agent ██████, email address ██████ participated in the interview. After being advised of the identities of the interviewers and nature of the interview, ██████ provided the following information:
██████ He has held this position since ██████ He has been with ██████ since ██████. He has no aviation expertise. He has ██████ of private pilot time.
On the day of ██████ 2026, ██████ was positioned at ██████. Others with him include ██████ SA ██████
At approximately time 1604 he was alerted to an RF detection at ██████ at 10K MSL for 5-10s at 90 burst with an unknown bearing. Further communication clarified a request to observe at bearing 58 degrees.
Within a few minutes, ██████ used a ██████ Thermal optical device to look in the direction of 58 degrees. He saw a black object in the sky. It was not moving fast. He took pictures using the optical device. While observing he saw a second object to the right of the first and took additional photos/videos. The objects were moving together at the same speed. Both were black hot. He lost view of the objects when they traveled a distance out of view. Total observation time was approximately 5 - 10 minutes. ██████ is unable to estimate an altitude or speed. The objects were above the mountain line. They were moving in the direction of SE, approximately 58 degrees to 62 degrees. Given the distance of the objects it was difficult for ██████ to determine direction of travel.
██████ was the only one at his location to see the objects. He was the only one who used the optic. The ██████ agent looked at the photos ██████ took. The photos were provided to SA ██████.

Where It Happened
Full Transcript
This is the actual thermal video, filmed by a U.S. Government special agent in the western United States, in 2026.
At about four in the afternoon, an alert: an R.F. detection at ten thousand feet. He was asked to look toward bearing fifty eight degrees.
Through a hand-held thermal optic, he saw a black object in the sky, not moving fast. Then a second one, to the right of the first.
They moved together, at the same speed. Both black hot.
Five to ten minutes above the mountain line, then out of view. He could not estimate their altitude or their speed.
We covered his interview in Case F-32. This is what he filmed, cropped to the middle of the scope so it fits your screen. The Pentagon calls them two slow-moving, black-hot areas of contrast.
