Case watch
Official DVIDS video with a loaded USO/submarine title and timestamp notes that describe multiple tracked areas of contrast rather than a settled water-transition conclusion.
Eight-minute official DVIDS video with four recurring contrast areas, cuts, contrast filters, zooms, and a loaded UAP/USO title that needs careful reading.
Short official DVIDS formation clip tied to Iran, with clear metadata and a focused question around four areas of contrast crossing the sensor view.
Official Release 02 video with an apparent rapid exit, edited replay structure, sensor tracking break, and useful source caveats.
The May 8, 2026 release is the starting point for the tracker, with the first public set of Department of War PURSUE files, videos, and unresolved-case language.
Newly released 2026 video tied to the February 2023 Lake Huron F-16 shootdown, with official DVIDS metadata and a clear 46-second clip to inspect.
The second 2026 PURSUE release expanded the public archive with new documents, videos, and agency records that need a clear reader map.
The phrase connects Department of Energy-linked records, older fireball reports, nuclear-era history, and a long-running UAP research question.
The record draws attention because it combines witness status, orb language, and intelligence context without yet settling what was observed.
Official video includes sensor-mode changes, timestamps, and a companion mission-report reference that make it useful for careful viewing.
A useful PDF case for understanding possible UAP counts, targeting-pod context, and the missing sensor media readers would need next.
How to read the tracker
War.gov, DVIDS, Congress, AARO, NASA, ODNI, DOE, or another primary source is available for readers to open directly.
News reports, public archive watchers, or community threads can point to records worth checking, but the official file decides what is published here.
Some files are listed here while the document, video, source chain, and related history are being read before a full page is published.
Some released files help explain the archive but do not yet add enough evidence for a standalone case page.
