In January 2019, a U.S. CENTCOM ISR platform tracked multiple UAPs in formation over the Persian Gulf in what became the longest single footage item in PURSUE Release 2, at 17 minutes and 36 seconds. The recording — released as DOW-UAP-PR098 on May 22, 2026 — documents progressive zoom operations tracking multiple areas of infrared contrast across the full duration. The extended 17:36 tracking time distinguishes this from brief-glance encounters and establishes that the sensor crew maintained persistent lock on multiple objects. Uploaded to classified networks in October 2019, the footage was publicly released as part of PURSUE Release 2 on May 22, 2026.
