It documents how Air Materiel Command gathered reports, coordinated intelligence collection, evaluated possible explanations, and considered the problem unresolved despite identifying some reports as balloons or astronomical objects.

When Northrop Grumman acquired TRW in 2002, it absorbed the cleared personnel, facilities, security infrastructure and classified space programs built there over decades. The same engineers and research groups had already passed through Douglas, RAND, Hughes, Lockheed, TRW and Northrop as contracts moved and companies were reorganized or acquired. William Tompkins’ forty-year aerospace career runs through that chain. From 1942 to 1946, he served on Admiral Rico Botta’s staff, distributing Nav...

DOW-UAP-D095, Joint U.S.-Canadian Aviation Projects and UFO Sighting Reports, 1954-1955

Department of War57 pagesJul 10, 2026RELEASE-04-FILE-019-DOW-UAP-D095-JOINT-U-S-CANADIAN-AVIATION-PROJECTS-AND-UFO-SIGHTING-REPORTS-1954-1955

The file links U.S.–Canadian review of Avro circular-aircraft concepts, skeptical technical assessments, intelligence concern about foreign vertical-takeoff work, and a separately reported 1955 KC-97 radar-and-visual incident near Newfoundland. The collection is important for separating documented circular-aircraft research from speculative foreign-program reporting and from an unresolved operational sighting that happened in the same policy environment.

Department of War25 pagesJun 12, 2026RELEASE-03-FILE-002-DOW-UAP-D084-US-ARMY-FLYING-SAUCER-STUDY-1949

This released document records that plans & Operations requested an evaluation to determine whether the reports arose from natural phenomena or could be traced to a foreign power. The file preserves the source account or analysis but does not independently establish interpretations beyond the cited record. This document is useful as an officially released artifact because it preserves the file's provenance and lets its claims be compared with related Release 03 records.

It's fantastic that Burlison is naming the coroporations. https://t.co/GB6PnV8voZ [Quoted] If you really want to hide something from Congress, you don't put it in a government file cabinet. You hand it to a private contractor. That's why my investigation is following the trail into RAND, MITRE, Aerospace Corp, MIT Lincoln Labs, and the Northrop Grummans of the world. https://t.co/gyayt6YuOB
