Tetra
Class I
Preliminary Classification
Description
Tetrahedron shaped UAP which tumbles on multiple axes while on a stable flight path. Often appears in groups of 3-20+.
Visual Profile
Black with intermittent white vapor bursts. Exhibits strobing effect on electro-optical (EO) sensors several times per second.
Size
1.5 - 2 meters
Flight Behavior
Appears to tumble at high speed across multiple axes while maintaining a stable overall flight path. Typically descends from high altitude to below ~2,000 ft AGL.

The classification system presented below is a living taxonomy—subject to ongoing revision as new data is captured and analyzed by the Skywatcher team. The hypotheses associated with each class are exploratory in nature and should not be interpreted as conclusive scientific fact. This framework is intended to provide a foundational structure for the collection, analysis, and categorization of UAP data across multiple sensor domains.
Characteristics
Frequently observed in coordinated sortie formations ranging from 3 to 20+. Known for unpredictable movements when engaged or targeted, including extreme evasive maneuvers that exceed camera tracking capabilities.

Interactions
When targeted by laser rangefinders, Tetra craft exhibit jinking behavior—moving so rapidly that EO/IR sensors struggle to maintain a lock. No reflective return when lased.
