Gimbal UAP — Rotating Object Against the Wind

U.S. East Coast (Atlantic), ~100 miles offshore

An F/A-18 Super Hornet ATFLIR pod captured a disc-shaped object visibly rotating against the direction of wind at 25,000 feet. The object moved into the prevailing wind and appeared to rotate continuously with no visible means of propulsion. DoD officially released the FLIR footage in 2020; AARO lists it as unresolved.

GoFast UAP — Hypersonic Low-Altitude Object

U.S. East Coast (Atlantic), ~100 miles offshore

FLIR footage declassified by DoD captures a small, fast-moving object skimming approximately 25 feet above the Atlantic Ocean surface. Speed calculations from the FLIR data indicate the object was moving at a speed inconsistent with any known drone or projectile at that altitude. AARO classifies the GoFast as unresolved.

USS Theodore Roosevelt — GIMBAL and GOFAST Encounter Series

Atlantic Ocean, US East Coast — USS Theodore Roosevelt operational area

The USS Theodore Roosevelt Carrier Strike Group documented sustained UAP encounters across its 2014–2015 deployment. F/A-18 crews from VFA-11 reported near-daily UAP encounters. Two incidents — GIMBAL (an object rotating against the wind) and GOFAST (a fast-moving low-altitude object) — produced the official DoD infrared videos released in 2020. Pilot Ryan Graves testified that the objects appeared almost daily for months and that at least one near-miss occurred.

Israeli Air Force Negev Desert UAP 2015

Negev Desert, Dimona region, Israel

Israeli Air Force F-16Is were scrambled to intercept an unidentified contact at 60,000 feet over the Negev Desert near the Dimona nuclear research center. The contact outperformed the F-16I at extreme altitude. Israeli air defense classified the encounter. Details emerged through a former IAF officer speaking to Israeli defence journalists in 2022.

Scottsdale Radar Track 2015

Scottsdale, Maricopa County, Arizona

A luminous orb performed sustained maneuvers near Scottsdale Municipal Airport in the congested Phoenix airspace during active traffic periods. Scottsdale Airport tower crew observed and filed reports with the FAA. Multiple pilots on approach to Phoenix Sky Harbor also reported the contact. The FAA received an unusually detailed set of independent contemporaneous reports and forwarded to the UAP reporting system established post-UAPTF.
