Overview of the fourth tranche of UAP records released by the Department of War under PURSUE
⚠ Note on validity: PURSUE files are cases the government calls unresolved: it could not reach a definitive conclusion, often because of limited data. “Unresolved” does not mean “anomalous,” and historical records are included for context whether or not they were resolved at the time.

Overall assessment

Assessment. The domestic Navy cases fill in the period behind the 2017–2019 news coverage of Navy encounters, and include at least one object drifting with the wind. The historical records are mostly known in outline, but several (Los Alamos transcript, Avro file) appear online in full for the first time.
