This is a case resolution report from the U.S. Department of Defense's All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), dated February 6, 2025. It covers the January 2015 "Go Fast" infrared video that a Navy F/A-18F recorded off Florida. AARO worked only from the public video and found the object was at about 13,000 feet, not near the ocean surface, and moved at roughly 5 to 92 mph. The report attributes the apparent high speed to motion parallax and states with high confidence that the object showed no anomalous performance.
UNCLASSIFIED 15 UNCLASSIFIED Figure 8: The sensor elevation “change frame” data points are plotted vs frame time. The dotted line was fit to the points to estimate the elevation for all frames in the time interval. Figure 9: The range to target “change frame” data points are plotted vs frame time. The dotted line was fit to the points to estimate the range for all frames in the time interval. With values estimated for all frames and times, the vector rotation and point translation methodology described in the previous section were applied to find the UAP’s three-dimensional flight path. The resulting path through the x-y plane is plotted in Figure 8. The UAP’s direction of travel is a relatively straight path from the top left to the bottom right. The altitude profile is provided in Figure 9 and shows the UAP rising about 10 m (30 ft) with a slow, curving descent
