It is a two-page email chain about whether short tearlines from that report could be handled at the unclassified level and whether the INDOPACOM AOR could be named in them.[^2]\n\n## How the Tearlines Were Cleared\n\nOne message asks for confirmation that two redacted tearlines are unclassified and that the AOR can be stated as INDOPACOM.[^2] A later note from a PAROC Intel Data Analysis Technician Team Lead in 12 AF / DET 3 says the flying unit confirmed by phone that both lines and the INDOPACOM AOR were unclassified.[^2]\n\nThe correspondence also includes an Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security information-disclosure analyst clarifying that the tearlines were approved at the unclassified level.[^2] Names, contact details, and at least one subject-matter reference remain withheld under redaction markings.[^2]\n\n## Two Brief April Sightings\n\nThe first releasable line says a U.S. aircraft observed one possible UAP for 12 seconds at 2353Z on April 10, 2025.[^2] The second says a U.S. aircraft observed one possible UAP for 23 seconds at 0007Z on April 11, 2025.[^2]\n\nBoth lines leave altitude and speed unknown and state that no interference was noted.[^2] The catalog summary repeats the release's caution that descriptive and estimative language reflects the reporter's interpretation at the time rather than a conclusive finding about object characteristics or performance.[^1]\n\n## D50 Has No Paired Video\n\nThe release catalog lists no DVIDS video ID, video title, video pairing, or paired PDF for DOW-UAP-D50.[^1] The public record for this item is therefore the email-correspondence PDF rather than a paired public-release video or separate supporting media file.[^1][^2]\n\n## What the Emails Preserve\n\nDOW-UAP-D50 matters because it preserves the disclosure workflow around two brief possible UAP observations: a mission report was reduced to unclassified tearlines, those tearlines were checked with the relevant unit, and INDOPACOM was approved as a releasable regional context.[^2]\n\nThe evidentiary value is narrow but useful. The record provides precise UTC times, durations, and a no-interference statement, while withholding names and leaving the objects' altitude, speed, and underlying mission-report details unresolved.[^2]\n\n<PDF src=\"https://www.war.gov/medialink/ufo/release_1/dow-uap-d50-email-correspondence-indopacom-april-2025.pdf\" />\n\n## References\n\n[^1]: [Department of War PURSUE Release 01 page](https://www.war.gov/UFO/#release)\n\n[^2]: [DOW-UAP-D50, Email Correspondence, INDOPACOM, April 2025 remote release asset](https://www.war.gov/medialink/ufo/release_1/dow-uap-d50-email-correspondence-indopacom-april-2025.pdf)","readingTime":"3 min read"},"relatedRecords":[],"citation":{"canonicalUrl":"https://disclosdex.com/documents/2026-pursue-release-01-060-dow-uap-d50-email-correspondence-indopacom-april-2025","title":"DOW-UAP-D50 INDOPACOM April 2025 Email Correspondence","publisher":"Disclosdex","retrievedFrom":"https://disclosdex.com/api/v1/documents/2026-pursue-release-01-060-dow-uap-d50-email-correspondence-indopacom-april-2025","license":"CC-BY-4.0"}}
