Department of War PURSUE Release 01 lists FBI Photo B20 as a one-page FBI PDF tied to an All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) submission involving a still image derived from a U.S. military system in 2025. The release metadata places the incident in Late 2025 in the Western United States.1
The PDF is image-only. It shows a monochrome sensor-style frame with a central crosshair reticle, a wide redacted band across the top, six black redaction boxes over side data areas, and a visible bottom-left timestamp reading "12/31/99 18:18:58." The release description says the original imagery was redacted before submission, no accompanying mission report was provided, and the visible date is incorrect because the system date/time was not set.2
The visible object is small, dark, and irregular, positioned slightly above and to the right of the reticle center. The release narrative describes "one to two small, dark, objects" in that area, but it also warns that the description is informational rather than an analytical judgment about the event's validity, nature, or significance.2 From the visible material and source context alone, altitude, range, speed, exact location, exact date, sensor platform, and identity cannot be established.
This record matters because it separates a public UAP evidence item from the investigative context that would normally make it interpretable. The frame preserves a reported unresolved operator sighting and shows how much source information can be withheld or unavailable, but the redactions, absent mission report, and wrong timestamp mean the image should be treated as documentation of a reported event rather than proof of what the object was.
