Pentagon Releases Fourth Batch of UFO Files

The 40-file release adds new videos, audio and historical records, including reports from military sensors and sensitive sites, officials said.

  • The Pentagon published its fourth major tranche of declassified UFO files on Friday, adding 40 new records to its public database under an ongoing transparency initiative.
  • The fresh batch consists of 14 documents, 19 videos, four audio files, and three images pulled from a multi-agency sweep that includes records from the CIA, FBI, NASA, and the Energy Department.
  • A standout report details a tense drone-like intrusion over a secure nuclear weapons facility—the Pantex plant near Amarillo, Texas, in September 2015—where security guards placed the facility on lockdown and used binoculars to chase a completely silent, unidentified object with no visible propulsion system.
  • The disclosure features striking military first-hand accounts, including testimony from a veteran military aviator who described encountering an object that was "unlike anything I had seen" in 28 years of active flight service.
  • The ongoing rollouts stem from a broader executive order signed by President Trump, establishing the "Presidential Unsealing and Reporting System for UAP Encounters" to systematically release unresolved historical files on a rolling basis.
