The record was declassified and released publicly as part of PURSUE Release 05 on August 7, 2026, pursuant to Section 1842 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2024.

Official metadata describes it as an unresolved aerial target recorded by the facility's security sensor network. The sensor output was reviewed prior to public release, and the version distributed under PURSUE Release 05 retains the target's observable thermal signature.[^1][^2][^3]\n\n## What the Record Supports\n\nThe record confirms that a Sandia perimeter sensor tracked an unidentified thermal target on the recorded date. It does not identify the object or state its altitude, speed, or origin.[^3]\n\n## References\n\n[^1]: [Department of War PURSUE page](https://www.war.gov/UFO/#release)\n[^2]: [Department of War PURSUE data file (uap-data.csv)](https://www.war.gov/Portals/1/Interactive/2026/UFO/uap-data.csv)\n[^3]: [DOE-UAP-D007, Enhanced Security Sensor Thermal Capture, Sandia, 2019 remote release asset](https://www.war.gov/medialink/ufo/080726/release_05/documents/DOE-UAP-D007.jpg)","readingTime":"1 min read"},"relatedRecords":[],"citation":{"canonicalUrl":"https://disclosdex.com/documents/2026-pursue-release-05-025-doe-uap-d007-enhanced-security-sensor-thermal-capture-sandia-2019","title":"DOE-UAP-D007, Enhanced Security Sensor Thermal Capture, Sandia, 2019","publisher":"Disclosdex","retrievedFrom":"https://disclosdex.com/api/v1/documents/2026-pursue-release-05-025-doe-uap-d007-enhanced-security-sensor-thermal-capture-sandia-2019","license":"CC-BY-4.0"}}
