U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM)

U.S. Indo-Pacific Command (USINDOPACOM) is the U.S. unified combatant command responsible for the Indo-Pacific area of operations, headquartered in Hawaii. It oversees U.S. military activity across an area of more than 100 million square miles, encompassing the Pacific and Indian oceans.

UAP relevance

USINDOPACOM is identified in pursue Release 01 (src-pursue-portal-launch-2026-05, src-sunday-guardian-162-files-2026-05) as the reporting command for a 2024 sighting near Japan of a “football-shaped” airborne object — one of the named carousel images in PURSUE’s Release 01 evidence set. joseph-trevithick flagged the same object as visually consistent with a Chinese high-altitude balloon (src-twz-pursue-shrug-2026-05).

Space.com’s mike-wall (src-space-com-pursue-video-trove-2026-05) adds two specific INDOPACOM video citations: a 9-second IR clip described as a “football-shaped body with three radial projections” (one vertical, two at 45° below the major axis), and a 100-second 2024 IR clip showing a bright dot moving through an array of windmills — likely the record src-metabunk-pursue-analysis-2026-05 identifies as PR-48 = candidate offshore wind turbines.

On May 13, 2026, Japan’s Chief Cabinet Secretary minoru-kihara confirmed Tokyo is reviewing USINDOPACOM-originated PURSUE footage alongside U.S. partners, including dow-uap-pr47 — a 2023 IR clip showing several contrasting objects in formation near Japanese airspace (src-japan-pentagon-uap-trove-reaction-2026-05).

PURSUE Release 04 (July 10, 2026) extends INDOPACOM’s UAP record to 2025 sensor footage near China — the tranche’s most recent-dated events: a Yellow Sea clip showing “an area of contrast resembling a six-pointed star,” and a separately tracked object over the East China Sea. This is the first vault-documented PURSUE case geographically sited near China itself (src-cbs-pursue-release-04-2026-07).
