Today Is the Day Congress Gave the Pentagon to Hand Over 46 Classified UFO Videos. Here Is What Those Videos Allegedly Show.

April 14, 2026 is the hard deadline Representative Anna Paulina Luna set in her March 31 letter to Secretary of War Pete Hegseth. The letter named 46 specific classified UAP video files by callsign, date, and operational context and demanded their delivery to the House Oversight Committee’s Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets no later than today. The footage reportedly includes clear, full-color military recordings of phenomena that Pentagon whistleblowers describe as among the most compelling UAP evidence the US government has ever collected. A congressional source who has previewed some of the material offered a single-sentence summary: “You’re gonna see some weird fking s**t.” The deadline is now. The videos have not been publicly released.*

The level of specificity in Luna’s letter is the detail that sets this request apart from every previous UAP transparency effort. Prior requests to the Pentagon and intelligence community have been general — release what you have, brief us on what you know. This letter named files. It used operational callsigns. It cited dates and coordinates. It identified specific aircraft designations and mission labels. The level of detail can only have come from someone inside the classification system who knows precisely what AARO holds and where it is stored.

Among the files specifically requested: a four-UAP formation recorded over Iran on August 26, 2022; a UAP making an instant acceleration in Syrian airspace in 2021, captured presumably by an intelligence platform; a USO formation tagged “Wiley 2X Zinc” (a transmedium event, air to water); a cigar-shaped object encounter from October 15, 2022; repeated engagements labeled with callsigns “Hackney 6,” “Toxic 6,” “Greed,” and “Mad Dog 31” — aircraft or unit identifiers attached to specific observation events; footage from the February 2023 shootdown of an octagonal object over Lake Huron; UAP in the vicinity of Columbus, Ohio airport; objects in formation over the Persian Gulf; footage from a fifth-generation fighter at Eglin AFB in 2023.

Forty-five of the 46 files have reportedly never been publicly disclosed. Sources who have previewed some of the material describe clear, full-color footage, in contrast to the grainy black-and-white thermal video that characterized earlier public UAP releases.

What the Deadline Actually Tests

The April 14 deadline is not primarily about the public seeing these videos. Congressional task forces do not typically post classified military footage directly to YouTube. The deadline tests whether the Department of War will comply with a formal congressional oversight request, and whether the broader executive disclosure process initiated by Trump’s February 20 Truth Social post has any actual teeth.

Secretary Hegseth, when asked in February whether he believes aliens exist, said: “We’ll see. I get to do the review and find out along with all of you.” He committed to full compliance with Trump’s UAP executive directive. “We’re digging in. We’re going to be in full compliance with that executive order, eager to provide that for the president.”

Luna, who served as an airfield manager at the Portland Air National Guard and personally encountered a UAP during her military service, has described her relationship with AARO as openly adversarial. After a classified briefing with AARO’s acting director in April 2024, she publicly called the session a “nothingburger.” She called former AARO director Sean Kirkpatrick a “documented liar” on the congressional record. On March 22, she recommended to DOGE that AARO be completely disbanded and defunded — the same week AARO publicly stated it was coordinating UAP declassification under Trump’s directive.

Rep. Tim Burchett, who serves on the UAP subcommittee, said this week that the classified briefings he has received would cause the country to “come unglued” and that citizens “would demand answers.” He called on Trump personally to release everything. Rep. Eric Burlison noted that some of the videos remain classified because they were captured on technology “we don’t want our adversaries to know that we have the ability to capture” — suggesting the classification may protect surveillance methods as much as the content itself.
