Military Correlation

“While performing a routine Airspace Surveillance and Control Mission in the Eastern Air Defense Sector, an F–22 fighter observed multiple UAP contacts at mission altitude. Moving to intercept, the F–22 pilot noted multiple metallic orbs, slightly smaller than a sedan, hovering in place. Upon vectoring toward the UAPs, a smaller formation of the metallic orbs accelerated at rapid speed toward the F–22, which was unable to establish radar locks on the presumed-hostile UAPs. The F–22 broke trajectory and attempted to evade but was intercepted and boxed in by approximately three to six UAPs.”

“It wasn't until the Russians could develop the SA–2 surface-to-air missile and successfully shoot them down”

“On USG networks, there exists infrared footage of and imagery of a grouping of vessels engaged in SIGINT and MASINT collection at night in a specific area of the Pacific Ocean. In this footage, which was in close proximity to the vessels, a large equilateral-triangle UAP suddenly appears directly over the ships. Three bright points are seen at each bottom corner of the UAP, which is observed to slowly rotate on its horizontal access.”

“In fact, there is a very real example when we built the U–2 spy plane and flew it over then-Russia and were taking reconnaissance. And when we first started flying the aircraft, it flew so high and so fast we thought they were not tracking us. In reality, they were tracking every flight.”

“I think it is actually—it is a travesty that we do not have a system to correlate this and actually investigate. You know, so if you took the East Coast, you know, there is coastal radars out there that monitor our air defense identification zone so out there 200 miles. They can track these, you know, so when you see them they could actually go and pull that data and get maneuvering.”

“No. Since the events initially occurred, I have learned that the objects have been detected, essentially, where all operations—our Navy operations are being conducted across the world and that is from the All-Domain Anomaly Resolutions Office reporting.”

“We also know that AARO has reported that, and I want to quote, that ''most reports still reflect a bias toward restricted military airspace, a result of reporting from military personnel, and sensors presence in such areas.''”

“To the rest of the panel, was the Wall Street Journal article the first time that y'all were made aware of what was essentially an over–2-week UAP frenzy over Langley Air Force Base? Were y'all aware of this prior to the Wall Street Journal article? Anybody. A show of hands.”

“Well, a colleague of mine, who I referenced previously, Chris Mellon, he wrote an extensive article about this, that there were other incursions of drones over Langley before this, as well as many, many military installations over the last five decades.”

“I am running out of time. The last thing is that we need authorities. Law enforcement, military do not have authorities to actually engage, and we need to—Congress needs to act to give those authorities to local law enforcement and the military so they have clear guidelines on how to assess these issues going forward.”

“This was something we are briefing to new students. This is something that was included in the notice to airmen to ensure that there was no accidents, and now with commercial aviators, they are reaching out because they are having somewhat similar experiences as our military brothers and sisters, but they do not have any reporting system that they can send this to.”

“I am, sir, aware of the reporting that biologics have been recovered. Again, my focus was more nuts and bolts, looking at the physical aspects of these phenomenon, how they interacted around military equities and nuclear equities. So, I am certainly not a medical expert. I would not be able to probably provide you a whole lot of value in that, simply because I do not have the expertise.”

“Have you spoken to commercial and military pilots that have seen these off of our East Coast?”

“I have.”

“UAP are real. Advanced technologies not made by our government or any other government are monitoring sensitive military installations around the globe.”

“Yes, sir, there is definitely enough data to suggest that there is certainly some sort of relationship between sensitive U.S. military installations, also some of our nuclear equities, and also some of our Department of Energy sites.”

“Sir, it may be both. Part of my concern is, we have something in the Department of Defense and the intelligence community called IPB, initial preparations of the battlespace. And we use equities like ISR—intelligence, surveillance, and reconnaissance—and other types of equities and technologies to prep the battlespace.”

“Mr. Shellenberger, you are particularly familiar with the Langley Air Force Base incident a year ago? Are you familiar?”

“And it is my understanding that there has been an ever-increasing-in-number and—I am trying to think how to say this, because I wear two different hats. I am still in the Air Force. So, I mean, it seems that they are becoming increasingly brash. And the question that we really have to figure out is, is it China or is it nonhuman? And I think that is the biggest question the American people want to know.”

“And, in fact, I really believe that we should use this hearing as a catalyst to improve and bolster our air defense capabilities and our maritime domain awareness capabilities, because obviously there are holes in it, whether it be UAP of non-HI direction, or NHI direction, or, as you say, sir, China or any other adversary.”

“Are you aware of any other reconnaissance platforms have tracked or recorded the Tic Tac's maneuvers, maybe the NORAD system or any of the others?”

“There is a long historical record that some of your colleagues may have, documentation that demonstrates this. This is not a new trend; this has been going on for decades. And that information has been obfuscated, unfortunately, from folks like you and this Committee.”

“And, you know, we have been hearing about these for years, but they have generally been isolated and not as consistent and over critical military installations. Would you say that's fair? Is this becoming increasingly—is it happening more and more?”

“It seems that a lot of these sightings occur near military installations. Do you think that these UAPs are intentionally targeting military installations, or do you think that we have increased abilities to monitor surrounding military installations?”

“Are y'all aware of any task force at the Pentagon or in the national security apparatus that is trying to assess the answer to that question?”

“Given your experience with the Department of Defense and the intelligence community, how frequently are UAP sightings over military installations? And, second, I suppose hypothetically you could have incursions over just, say, regular airports. Is it obvious these incursions are more likely over military facilities than just a random airport out there?”

“Sir, decades. And there is information that will hopefully be entered into the record at some point.”
