Last year, the Navy for the first time acknowledged that three UFO videos — one from the 2004 USS Nimitz incident and two from 2015 — were real videos of unidentified flying objects.
Responding to Vice’s Freedom of Information Act request, the Navy said it had “discovered certain briefing slides that are classified TOP SECRET. A review of these materials indicates that are currently and appropriate Marked and Classified TOP SECRET under Executive Order 13526 and the Originial Classification Authority has determined that release of these materials would cause exceptionally grave damage to the National Security of the United States.”
“We have also determined that ONI possesses a video classified SECRET that ONI is not the Original Classification Authority for,” the letter continued.
Vice reports that a Pentagon spokesperson said the Navy has the video of the mysterious incident in its possesion but has no plans to release it.
“However, I can tell you that the date of the 2004 USS Nimitz video is Nov. 14, 2004,” the spokesperson told Vice. “I can also tell you that the length of the video that’s been circulating since 2007 is the same as the length of the source video. We do not expect to release this video.”

The reason for the classification of the video as SECRET is probably because the raw video showed actual radar performance, which by definition is classified SECRET.
The slides marked TOP SECRET probably discussed the data of the sighting in context of known vulnerabilities and shortcoming of the radar systems involved (both airborne and shipboard), which by definition is classified TOP SECRET, because if your enemies understand the weaknesses of your system, they can work around it.
That is why they claim grave damage to national security, not because of disclosure of the UFO sighting, which they’ve already done. Not that UFO data isn’t routinely and abusively classified, I just don’t think it’s the case here.
Also, (voice of experience) the US Navy tends to reflexively over-classify everything; it’s an institutional trait, and not just about UFOs.
