DOW-UAP-PR49 is the most recently dated sensor video in PURSUE Release 01. Captured in 2026 by a U.S. Department of the Army platform, the 1-minute-49-second clip shows infrared sensor tracking of an unresolved aerial object.

The Army provenance is itself notable: the bulk of the PR-series videos in this release originate from Navy or Air Force platforms operating over water in U.S. Central Command's area of responsibility. An Army-platform UAP video is comparatively rare in the public record and may signal a broadening of the joint-service collection AARO is now releasing.
