Deputy Director of Naval Intelligence Scott Bray points to a video display of a UAP during a hearing of the House Intelligence, Counterterrorism, Counterintelligence, and Counterproliferation Subcommittee hearing on "Unidentified Aerial Phenomena," on Capitol Hill, Tuesday, May 17, 2022, in …U.S.
“However, many reports from military witnesses do present potential safety of flight concerns and there are some cases where reported UAP have potentially exhibited one or more concerning performance characteristics such as high-speed travel or unusual maneuverability,” reads a portion of the AARO report, produced by the Defense Department and the Office of the Director of National Intelligence.
“While the mere presence of UAP in the airspace represents a potential hazard to flight safety, none of these reports suggest the UAP maneuvered to an unsafe proximity to civil or military aircraft, positioned themselves in flight paths, or otherwise posed a direct threat to the flight safety of the observing aircraft,” the study says. “Although none of these UAP reports have been positively attributed to foreign activities, these cases continue to be investigated.
The study also comes on the heels of a stunning congressional hearing in July during which former U.S. intelligence officer David Grusch told Congress under oath that he is aware of “a multi-decade UAP crash retrieval and reverse-engineering program.” He even suggested that the Pentagon has long been in possession of actual alien bodies.“I can tell you … that as the chairman I have been briefed on several different occasions by the UAP office.
