TL;DR
On March 25, 2022, multiple spherical objects were filmed entering and exiting water near a U.S. submarine. Released May 22, 2026 as DOW-UAP-PR067, this is the first publicly released government video confirming transmedium UAP behavior.
Confirmed
- ✓DOW-UAP-PR067 is an authentic U.S. government sensor recording confirmed via PURSUE Release 2 (war.gov/UFO, May 22, 2026)
- ✓Incident date confirmed as March 25, 2022 per DVIDSHUB metadata
- ✓Multiple spherical objects observed entering and exiting water (transmedium behavior) near a U.S. submarine
- ✓Video duration: 4:50; uploaded to classified DoW/AARO networks May 2024
- ✓First publicly released U.S. government video of transmedium UAP behavior
Unresolved
- ?Identity, class, and operational location of the U.S. submarine remain classified
- ?Sensor platform type (surface ship, aircraft, submarine-deployed) is not publicly confirmed
- ?Number of distinct objects and whether they are the same objects making multiple transits or a formation of separate objects
- ?The specific ocean or sea body where the event occurred
- ?Whether AARO has completed a formal assessment of this video
- ?Whether the submarine crew directly observed the objects or only the sensor platform recorded them
Strongest mundane explanation
Bioluminescence, ocean surface phenomena (wave spray, foam), or sensor artifacts from a military FLIR camera could potentially produce contrast anomalies resembling spherical objects entering water. However, the DVIDSHUB title explicitly describes 'multiple spherical UAP USO entering and exiting water near a submarine' — AARO's standard disclaimer on DVIDSHUB states descriptions are provided for informational purposes only, but the title language is specific enough to indicate AARO classified this as a distinct phenomenon rather than a sensor artifact.
On March 25, 2022, a U.S. military sensor platform documented multiple spherical UAPs entering and exiting the water in close proximity to a U.S. submarine. The 4:50-duration sensor recording — released as DOW-UAP-PR067 in PURSUE Release 2 on May 22, 2026 — constitutes the first publicly released U.S. government video evidence of transmedium UAP behavior, defined as the demonstrated capability of an object to transition between air and water environments. The specific water body, submarine class, and platform sensor type remain classified. The objects' active air-water transitions near a strategic U.S. naval asset represent one of the most significant UAP encounters in the public record.
Key Facts
- ›Date: March 25, 2022 — location classified
- ›Multiple spherical objects observed transitioning between air and water environments (transmedium behavior)
- ›Proximity to a U.S. submarine — the submarine's class, callsign, and operational location remain classified
- ›Video duration: 4:50; uploaded to classified DoW/AARO networks May 2024 (distinct from the June 2024 upload date of most PR-series files)
- ›Released as DOW-UAP-PR067 via PURSUE Release 2 (DVIDSHUB ID: 1007779) on May 22, 2026
- ›First publicly released U.S. government video documenting the transmedium observable
- ›Transmedium capability — air-water transition — is one of the five anomalous observables defined in the Elizondo-era AATIP analytical framework
- ›Prior to this release, transmedium UAP behavior was documented only through witness testimony and classified reporting — no official video had entered the public record
