These statements reflect the cited record and are not independent verification.

  • Source reportedUnverified

    Alexandro Wiggins says a low-altitude radar contact led him to the USS Jackson bridge wing, where he saw a steady light rise from the ocean.

    Outside, Wiggins says he saw a steady light rise from the water. He considered ordinary possibilities, including a helicopter or equipment associated with a crane, but found them inconsistent with what he believed he was observing.

  • Source reportedUnverified

    Wiggins says the first object joined three similar Tic Tac-shaped objects whose synchronized movements suggested a shared controller.

    As the operator followed the first object, Wiggins says they recognized additional similar objects, eventually counting four together. He describes their movements as so synchronized that they seemed to share a controller.

    Wiggins says all four objects rapidly departed together toward the coast after the released video ended, with their direction of travel still perceptible.

    He carefully distinguishes what he means by near-instantaneous movement from simple disappearance: observers could perceive the direction of travel, although he found the speed difficult to describe.

The office has never released a public assessment of the case. We still don't have the complete Sapphire recording, the radar tracks or a technical account of what the ship detected as the objects left. AARO apparently wanted more from Wiggins, but hasn't said what that was.

🧵THE NAVY BACKED HIS UFO TESTIMONY. THEN AARO TRIED TO TAKE IT INTO A SCIF (1/13) On February 15 2023, Senior Chief Alexandro Wiggins was aboard the USS Jackson off Southern California when the ship detected an unknown object around 8 nautical miles away. Wiggins went outside to find it and says he saw a glowing Tic Tac rising from the ocean. Three more appeared before all 4 accelerated away at the same time. The Navy later backed his decision to tell Congress what happened. Wiggins now says...

United States House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform5 pagesSep 9, 2025

In this September 2025 congressional statement, Navy Senior Chief Alexandro C. Wiggins gives his personal account of a February 2023 USS Jackson encounter off Southern California. He says four Tic-Tac-like objects were observed and tracked with shipboard sensors, while making clear that the statement represents his views rather than an official Navy or Defense Department position.
