Indonesia: Lhokseumawe and Sabang did not paint MH370

Indonesian Air Force/Defence: no detection of MH370 crossing Indonesian airspace. Lhokseumawe cited ~240 nm capability. Formal denial of concealment.

JORN not tasked the night of 7–8 March 2014

Australian over-the-horizon radar · peacetime status

Wikipedia and Australian statements: Jindalee Operational Radar Network was not operational / not tasked that night. Absence of a JORN track is not a northern-path proof.

EvidenceConfirmed8 Mar 2014 00:19 UTC

No 406 MHz ELT detection

Emergency locator transmitter never heard

No satellite or ground station reported a 406 MHz distress burst from 9M-MRO. Compatible with a high-energy impact, a powered-off ELT, or a failure to trigger.

ClaimConfirmed

No group claimed MH370

Twelve years on, no organisation has issued a credible claim of responsibility. Absence of a claim is not proof of innocence; it is a fact that sits next to the stolen passports.

MH370: The Forensic Evidence

Capt. John Cox · Sit Down With Sid · 13 June 2026 · 37:10

US accident investigator. Reads the transponder drop at the FIR boundary, the southwest run to MEKAR, the northwest turn, and the 300-mile ocean leg as too many coincidences for a random failure. Preponderance, in his view: a deliberate act, high likelihood the captain.

Remote-control claims versus evidence gaps

Patent, QF-16, Teso FMS proof-of-concept · installation on 9M-MRO still open

Working chart: unmanned flight of a fighter-class jet was demonstrated in 2013; Boeing’s uninterruptible-autopilot patent exists; Hugo Teso showed an FMS proof-of-concept the same year. Boeing told Malaysian investigators there was no commercial implementation on the 2002 delivery. Radar proves a turn at IGARI, not who commanded it. Ten data requests remain.

PersonConfirmed

Franklin B. Mead Jr.

AFRL propulsion · Mead corpus does not support manufactured plasma orbs

Beamed-energy / aneutronic-fusion / laser-thermal propulsion. Dense-plasma-focus plasmoids in his papers are centimetre-scale, device-bound and transient. The 2004 Teleportation Physics Study (Davis; Mead as project manager) is theoretical. No pathway to metre-scale autonomous atmospheric orbs.

HypothesisInconsistent

Manufactured plasma orbs in alleged footage

Not adopted. Drive backup records a negative scientific finding.

Ashton Forbes has claimed laboratory-scale manufactured plasma spheres. The Ashton Hall backup concludes Mead/AFRL propulsion literature does not support metre-scale autonomous plasma orbs.

Aurora’s endurance attempt was flight 18 and carried 1,000 lb of ballast. Maiden flight (no mission system) and this record flight both fail as evidence of an operational ISR stack. Payload on flights 2–17 remains open.

West-track disclosure lag — ministerial 10:30, ARCC 22:30, Thai 9–10 days

8 March and 18–19 March 2014

Hishammuddin 1 May 2014: military radar playback ~08:30 MYT 8 March, Air Force ops ~09:00, minister informed ~10:30 of a possible turn-back; a military aircraft west at 10:54. KL ARCC was not informed by RMAF of the western last-known until 22:30 MYT — a roughly 12-hour operational gap. Thai Surat Thani radar disclosed 18–19 March.

Open questionOpen

What was actually taken on 9 March — and did it include radar?

CSM said minutes of crisis meetings and classified documents, some related to MH370. The working chart asks whether radar information or discussions of the turn-back were in that set. No public loot list answers it. A negative would also be a finding.

4ORBS — Ashton Forbes video knowledge base

Third-party extract of 824 videos · a claim list, not proof

Structured archive extracted from 824 Ashton Forbes videos. Distinguishes extracted claims from proof. Every material proposition still has to be traced to the original document or video.

HypothesisUnverified

Alleged thermal / wide-area video is authentic collection

Hypothesis to test — provenance not established

Circulating clips are treated as alleged. If genuine, at least one collector must satisfy geometry, band, FOV, altitude and comms. Platform IDs attached to social posts are not accepted as authority. A ~6 fps ‘Gorgon Stare Increment 2 match’ is contradicted by the 2013 OSD 2 fps figure.

ClaimDisputed

Alleged-video 6 fps ‘Gorgon Stare match’ is contradicted by the 2013 OSD report

The 6 fps ‘Gorgon Stare match’ claimed for alleged video is not established. 2 fps is the documented comparison figure. Increment 2’s rate is unpublished here.

Angel Fire

Wide-area airborne surveillance · lineage into Blue Devil Block 1

USAF/SOCOM WAAS system. Congressional documentation describes Blue Devil Block 1 as integrating Angel Fire-derived wide-area imagery with signals intelligence on manned aircraft. Confirmed as the WAAS ancestor in this family, not as an MH370 collector.

ClaimConfirmed

MAGIC/Orion continued in USAF development after 2014

Confirmed by PB2020. Congressional adds through FY2018. The ‘faded after 2014’ formulation is a correction, not a secrecy finding.

Malaysian summary of possible MH370 debris

ICAO Annex 13 Team · updated 2017

Itemised list of wreckage recovered on western Indian Ocean coasts, with confirmation classes: confirmed, almost certain, highly likely, likely.

ClaimConfirmed

Orion’s first flight carried no mission system

Confirmed by contemporary September 2013 reporting and consistent with PB2015’s FY2014 “best of breed” sensor-selection language. December 2014 endurance attempt was flight 18 with 1,000 lb ballast — also not an ISR-payload demonstration. Those two flights do not decide what Orion was, and they do not decide March 2014.

Malaysia Airlines operations places a sat-phone call to the aircraft. The SDU acknowledges the incoming call; nobody in the cockpit answers.

Open questionOpen

Which of the ten theatre dossiers can actually be pulled?

The forensic board’s bottom row: 4 March Boeing statement of work; P-8/P-3 7–8 March sortie logs; Global Hawk records; Pinckney/Kidd pre-search tracks; JORN operating/tasking logs; SBIRS retrospective; Five Eyes MH370 correspondence; Boeing performance datasets; 9M-MRO avionics/mod configuration; early US intel reporting.

Open questionOpen

Why did SAR start in the wrong ocean for days?

Military primary radar and live SATCOM existed while the public search flew the South China Sea. Minister ~10:30 MYT; KL ARCC 22:30; Thai Surat Thani 18–19 March. GADSS is the policy answer; the night-of organisational failure is still a research subject.
