Original tape · original language kept
English writing · original voice kept
English of the official 2021 western-U.S. infrared tape. A military-range sensor records small heat sources. AARO later assessed them as commercial aircraft far from the camera — up to 300 nautical miles. The tape is real U.S. government work. The first reading (an incursion) is not the last word on the file.
Gimbal — official Navy ATFLIR
U.S. Navy / Department of Defense, authorized release 27 April 2020.
Original tape · original language kept
English writing · original voice kept
English cockpit radio on the Gimbal tape, January 2015, USS Theodore Roosevelt. One crewman says there is a fleet of objects, that they are going against a 120-knot west wind, and that the object in the FLIR appears to rotate. The Department of Defense released the clip in 2020. It remains unidentified in the public file. Later analyses argue the rotation may be a glare artifact.
GoFast — official Navy ATFLIR
U.S. Navy / Department of Defense, authorized release 27 April 2020.
Original tape · original language kept
English writing · original voice kept
English radio on the GoFast tape, 2015, east-coast Navy training. Crew comment on a small object that looks fast and low over the water. AARO later said parallax and altitude make it far less fast and low than it looks. The clip is genuine Navy film. It is not a recovered craft.

Chilean Navy FLIR, November 2014 — CEFAA study tape
Chilean Navy / CEFAA public release. Officially studied; not identified as extraterrestrial.
Original tape · heard in Spanish
English writing · from Spanish
English of the Chilean Navy / CEFAA tape. The original voice is Spanish. An Airbus Cougar on a FLIR test west of Santiago records an object that matches the helicopter at about 130 knots. A plume shows in infrared. CEFAA, Chile’s official office, studied the file for two years and called it a UAP. Later commentators argued for a distant airliner. The paper and the clip are the record — not a recovered craft.
Mexican Air Force infrared, Campeche 2004
Fuerza Aérea Mexicana tape as circulated in the public record. Later flare identification is on the file.
Original tape · heard in Spanish
English writing · from Spanish
English of the Mexican news copy of the 2004 Campeche tape. The original voiceover is Spanish. A Merlin C-26A on a counter-narcotics patrol records several infrared sources. The Defence Ministry confirmed the Air Force made the recording. Independent analysis later tied the hot spots to flares at the Cantarell oil field. The military tape is real. The unidentified reading is not the last word on the file.
