FBI-UAP-D017 is a Federal Bureau of Investigation digital rendering released in PURSUE Release 03 on June 12, 2026. The Department of War lists the originating agency as the FBI, with an incident date of October 2023 and a location of the western United States.12
A 2026 Reconstruction
The release describes this image as an artistic interpretation of a reported incident near a sensitive national security site in the western United States, involving unidentified anomalous phenomena over a period of two days in October 2023. The FBI prepared the digital rendering in 2026 at the request of the Department of War, making it an illustrative reconstruction rather than a contemporaneous photograph or sensor frame.1
Agent Narrative Basis
The rendering is based upon a first-hand description provided by a federal law enforcement special agent, as documented in DOW-UAP-D080. The "2-2" designation indicates this is the second visualization associated with that agent's narrative statement.3
What The Record Supports
FBI-UAP-D017 shows how a single agent's first-hand account was visualized after the fact; it is not an independent observation of the phenomenon. The image carries no sensor data, telemetry, or identification of the object, and the underlying two-day event near the sensitive site remains unidentified and unresolved.1
