The US justice department has released the first video of the plane crashing into the Pentagon on 11 September 2001.
American Airlines Flight 77 slammed into the US military headquarters, killing 184 people, after it was hijacked as part of an al-Qaeda plot.
The release of the video, taken from a Pentagon security camera, comes after a Freedom of Information Act request by legal watchdog Judicial Watch.
The group said it hoped to dispel conspiracy theories about the crash.
