(U) USG or Industry Developmental Programs: Some UAP observations could be attributable to classified USG aerospace programs or systems under development by commercial aerospace firms. We were unable to confirm , however , that these systems accounted for any of the UAP reports we collected. 50 U.S .

We would group such objects in this category pending scientific advances that allowed us to better understand them. The UAPTF intends to focus additional analysis on the small number of cases where there are initial indications that a UAP appeared to display unusual flight characteristics or signature management. 8 50 U.S.C. § 3024(i)
