This is a 2023 slide briefing from the All-Domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO), presented by Director Seán Kirkpatrick for the Department of Defense and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, titled "The Defense Department's UAP Mission & Civil Aviation." It defines UAP and sets out AARO's mission, vision and lines of effort. It calls for educating aviators, destigmatizing UAP reporting and building civil reporting channels, and it lists the observation details analysts need. The slides were reviewed and released in full in February 2025.
6 DoD PPR Approved Slide, Case 23-S-0802 U.S. Department of Defense & Office of the Director of National Intelligence UNCLASSIFIED UNCLASSIFIED Our mission success and our ability to contribute to aviation safety depends on observations and insights from the aviation community Educate Aviators and Crews The subject of UAP is laden with decades of imprecise—and often sensational— information Promulgating accurate information about UAP, their implications to flight safety and national security, and our commitment to resolving them is foundational to our partnership with the community. Sharing what UAP data is critically- important for scientific and intelligence analyses allows aviators and crews to optimize the value of their observations and reporting of phenomena Encourage Reporting Historically, reticence to UAP reporting has limited the Government’s ability to guard against aerial safety and security threats Destigmatizing discussion about and reporting of UAP is essential for tracking, resolving, and defending against such phenomena Government efforts to encourage military aviators and crews to report phenomena have substantially increased the quantity and quality of UAP data Updating Civil Aviation Reporting Mechanism Leverage Our Expertise & Systems Aviators and crews informed about UAP and willing to report have historically had few official channels to submit observational data We are working with military, civil, and industry partners to develop and field reporting mechanisms available to aviators and crews By leveraging our systems, we will be able to quickly incorporate aviators’ and crews’ reporting into the corpus of data, to optimize scientific and intelligence analyses, and to provide feedback to the reporting individual and/or organization023 Page determined to be Unclassified Reviewed by Chief of Staff, AARO IAW FY24 NDAA, Section 1841 (a)(1)(C) Date: 02/06/2025
