The All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office of the U.S. Department of Defense issued this case resolution on the "Go Fast" video on February 6, 2025. It covers a January 2015 FLIR recording made by a U.S. Navy F/A-18F off Florida's eastern coast. From the public 34-second video, AARO puts the object at about 13,000 feet, moving at 5 to 92 mph relative to the wind. It attributes the apparent high speed to motion parallax and has high confidence the object showed no anomalous performance.

UNCLASSIFIED 19 UNCLASSIFIED Figure 13: The path of the F/A-18 with no wind considered is in black. The other lines show the flight paths with a head, tail, and two cross winds applied. Estimated Flight Path of the UAP With the flight path of the F/A-18 for the four wind conditions calculated, the resulting paths of the UAP were found using the same method as in the case without wind. The four resulting paths are plotted in Figure 12. Note than in each case, the UAP is headed in the same general direction as the wind at the altitude of the F/A -18 (7,620 m), which is comparable to the wind direction at the altitude of the UAP (a 10° difference as shown in Figure 10).
