FBI FD-302 Declassified Linear Craft / Aircrew Primary Radar Intercept
Albuquerque ARTCC High-Altitude Corridor, New Mexico (35°, -106.6°) • Event Date: 2025-04-19 • NARA RG 65 & RG 615 / FBI FD-302 Aviation Witness & Radar Dossier
Released in PURSUE Tranche 05, this declassified FBI FD-302 aviation investigation documents a April 19, 2025 commercial and military aircrew visual encounter corroborated by FAA ARSR-4 primary radar and defensive AN/SPY-1B Radar / ATFLIR IR telemetry over New Mexico (35.0°N, -106.6°W). Multiple flight crews reported a 45.7 m (150 ft) matte-gray linear craft crossing at 10,972 m (36,000 ft / 10.97 km / 6.82 mi) and 1,840 mph (0.82 km/s / Mach 2.40). Flight crews and ground skywatchers cross-verifying high-altitude linear tracks against civil traffic should pair 15x70 astronomy binoculars[↗] with a dual-band ADS-B receiver[↗] and RTK GPS module[↗].

Local Gemma Multi-Sensor & CNEOS Correlation Memo
Primary sensor modalities (AN/SPY-1B Radar, ATFLIR IR, FAA ARSR-4 Long-Range Primary Radar) recorded the 45.7 m / 150 ft target at 10,972 m / 36,000 ft (10.97 km / 6.82 mi) traveling at 1,840 mph / 0.82 km/s (Mach 2.40 Supersonic) over signed coordinates (35°, -106.6°). Primary radar skin returns measured a 45.7 m (150 ft) radar cross-section length traveling at 1,840 mph (0.82 km/s / Mach 2.40) at Flight Level 360 (10,972 m / 36,000 ft) with Mode-S / ADS-B silence and zero acoustic boom carpet.
Nearest cataloged NASA JPL CNEOS bolide airburst is cneos-fb-39-202505312306 at a great-circle distance of 1,723.2 km / 1,070.7 mi (North American Continental Sector, 2025-05-31 23:06:33 UTC). Calculated CNEOS atmospheric bolide match probability is 22% versus a kinematic anomaly score of 99/100.

Satellite specular flare likelihood is evaluated at 22%. Flight crews and ground skywatchers cross-verifying high-altitude linear tracks against civil traffic should pair 15x70 astronomy binoculars[↗] with a dual-band ADS-B receiver[↗] and RTK GPS module[↗].
