kleinbl00 come tell me how it's not Aliens, its never been Aliens, and how even considering that it might be aliens is dumb.
I will assume this is also for secondary usage. Have you read the report? If not, go grab a copy and every time you see the acronym "UAP" substitute "sensor glitch": etc. etc. etc. Look. Raytheon charged the navy a lot of money for an integrated sensor suite that isn't very well integrated. The people who actually recorded the videos think they're boring-ass bullshit: But since someone leaked one of these videos to I-shit-you-not Tom Delonge, we all get to sit around contemplating little green men again. The only reason we're even wasting taxpayer money on this dumb shit is because Marco Rubio snuck it as a requirement into an appropriations bill. But if you read that report? So what do? Dollars to donuts the contract goes to Raytheon.Various forms of sensors that register sensor glitches generally operate correctly and capture enough real data to allow initial assessments, but some sensor glitches may be attributable to sensor anomalies.
The Sensor Glitch Task Force (UAPTF) considered a range of information on sensor glitches described in U.S. military and IC (Intelligence Community) reporting, but because the reporting lacked sufficient specificity, ultimately recognized that a unique, tailored reporting process was required to provide sufficient data for analysis of sensor glitch events.
Most of the sensor glitches reported probably do represent physical objects given that a majority of sensor glitches were registered across multiple sensors, to include radar, infrared, electro-optical, weapon seekers, and visual observation.
In a limited number of incidents, sensor glitches reportedly appeared to exhibit unusual flight characteristics. These observations could be the result of sensor errors, spoofing, or observer misperception and require additional rigorous analysis.
“Just because I’m saying that we saw this unusual thing in 2004 I am in no way implying that it was extraterrestrial or alien technology or anything like that,” Dietrich said.
Sensor glitches clearly pose a safety of flight issue and may pose a challenge to U.S. national security. Safety concerns primarily center on aviators contending with an increasingly cluttered air domain. Sensor glitches would also represent a national security challenge if they are foreign adversary collection platforms or provide evidence a potential adversary has developed either a breakthrough or disruptive technology.
The Sensor Glitch Task Force has indicated that additional funding for research and development could further the future study of the topics laid out in this report. Such investments should be guided by a Sensor Glitch Collection Strategy, Sensor Glitch R&D Technical Roadmap, and a Sensor Glitch Program Plan.
