Filmmaker Jeremy Corbell released Navy night-vision footage from July 2019 showing pyramid-shaped objects hovering over the destroyer USS Russell, and a video from the USS Omaha's combat center showing a sphere flying over the ocean and descending into the water without a splash. The Pentagon confirmed that Navy personnel took the pyramid images. For believers, it was hard evidence of craft that move between air and sea.

- Pentagon spokesperson Susan Gough confirmed the images were taken by Navy personnel.
- Navy deck logs recorded swarms of unknown drones around several destroyers in July 2019.
- USS Omaha radar video, 15 July 2019, west of San Diego beyond the Channel Islands: up to 14 contacts around the ship at once on two radar systems over about two hours ("track 781... 46 knots, 50 knots, closing in"). Released 27 May 2021; a Pentagon spokesperson confirmed within hours that Navy personnel recorded it and the UAPTF holds it.USS Jackson tic tacs
- The sphere, at least 6 ft across, flew beside the Omaha for about an hour and went into the sea at 23:00; it vanished from radar and sonar and a search found nothing. The UAPTF briefing carries a freeze-frame of it as an unknown.USS Jackson tic tacs

A Navy chief told Congress he saw glowing objects rise out of the ocean near the USS Jackson, and the ship's thermal sensor then caught four tic-tac shapes that left together 'two steps behind instantaneous'. Four years earlier the USS Omaha tracked a spher…
They use the waterSeventy per cent of the planet is water we barely watch. It is the natural place for something that has been here a long time, and the same stretch of sea off Southern California keeps producing it: the Nimitz in 2004, the Omaha in 2019, the Jackson in 2023.
