Probed Analysis

The Defense Intelligence Agency is a Department of Defense organization created in 1961 to integrate military intelligence for senior defense leaders, combatant commands, and national policymakers. It produces analysis of foreign military capabilities, manages human-intelligence and technical missions, and coordinates with the services and wider Intelligence Community. Its director is a military officer accountable through defense and intelligence leadership.

DIA’s work spans overt and clandestine collection, attaché reporting, scientific and technical intelligence, and support to operations. Many products remain classified because they expose foreign sources, American capabilities, or military judgments. A DIA contract or report demonstrates an authorized defense-intelligence activity, though individual contractor conclusions do not automatically become agency findings.

The agency awarded the 2008 AAWSAP contract to BAASS for advanced aerospace studies and anomalous-phenomena work. That program generated technical papers, databases, and investigations later central to disputes about AATIP and Skinwalker Ranch. DIA has also contributed to modern interagency UAP assessments. Public records confirm the contract and deliverables while leaving disagreement about the program’s intended emphasis and the evidentiary value of its extraordinary cases.

DIA’s importance lies in the meeting point between foreign military threats, technical possibility, and classified collection. That mandate makes unusual aerospace reports relevant without implying an alien conclusion. Accurate institutional history separates agency-approved requirements, contractor work, finished intelligence, and later personal accounts, each of which carries a different level of authority. The agency’s public reading room and contracting record provide anchors for that separation. They show what was authorized, when funds moved, and which products were delivered even where the interpretation of the work remains contested. Those records make DIA a central source for reconstructing the institutional transition from AAWSAP to later UAP efforts.

The obsession within the peanut gallery never dies. I stand by what I've said. Recent document releases only support what I've said that AAWSAP veered off from its intended purpose. I will let the public judge whether taxpayer funds were appropriated properly when it came from the original AAWSAP mission statement vs. what the DIA got in return. I find it very telling that many of the BAASS reports have no government markings, proper formatting, classification markings, etc., while the DIRDS...

And Greenewald made the argument that AAWSAP wasn't a UFO program to start with, but folks like Lacatski went rogue and turned it into one. BS, and just piss- [Quoted] Remember when @MiddleOfMayhem reported that "AAWSAP was NEVER a UFO program" The 7th UAP files release (23 Oct 2026) includes nine BAASS contractor records from the AAWSAP era (D166 to D175). They describe AAWSAP as a DIA contract to study UAP: buying UFO reports from MUFON, building a UAP database, modelling the Tic Tac and so...

[Retweeted] Jay Stratton and Dan Farah on Hannity: highlight Reel V.2 👇🏼 Crawford ranch witnesses put under NDAs, "men in suits" emptying DIA files, crashes caused on purpose, recoveries in Russia, one CIA gatekeeper saying no, and the gatekeepers are "still there." Hannity offers to call Trump. Normal Tuesday.

Thank you to everyone who read my previous article “Implications of military insiders’ claims about NHIs and UAPs: Earth is at risk of being a pawn on the galactic chessboard”. The article included a summary of the reasons that the most high-profile alleged military insiders have publicly claimed the full truth about NHIs and UAPs would be very difficult for the general population to handle. (This is according to the “Age of Disclosure” group, along with David Grusch). They have subsequently...

Probed ingest of: The Pentagon's UFO Debunker Is Lying

[Retweeted] 🚨 WOW: A former top Pentagon intelligence official says UFOs have been flying over our nuclear missile sites, and that even presidents were kept in the dark. Jay Stratton, former chief of air and space warfare at the Defense Intelligence Agency, told Jesse Watters that a secret program has been reverse engineering this technology for "over 80 years." Stratton: "It's like the Manhattan Project on steroids... whoever wins that competition will be the superpower for a hundred years....

Release 07 dropped on war.gov/UFO today: 28 PDFs from the Dept. of War, FBI, the Executive Office of the President and "U.S. Government". I run a small site that tracks the PURSUE releases, and I went through every document. Here are the parts worth your time, interesting and mundane alike. 1. Two documents, probably one event - DOW-UAP-D176 (AARO Memorandum for Record, 2026): federal law enforcement agents at a sensitive site in the western US see a matte black triangular craft (~13–15 ft sp...

Probed ingest of: NASIC - Air Force UFO Crash Retrieval & Reverse Engineering

On PDF page 21, BAASS describes an existing database of UFO reports and investigations. They were apparently upgrading it while keeping the framework from Project Capella, a database system proposed back in 2008. The database organized reports into six categories, including physical characteristics, physiological effects, psychological effects, and even psychic or parapsychological effects. Then on pages 117–128, there are actual computer simulations of Tic Tac-shaped objects, with pressure,...
