The Intelligven Debrief newsletter 11 Nov 2021:   
      
   [In a newslatter otherwise concerned with hypersonic and similar systems   
   under development by Russia and China:]   
      
   Unidentified Aerial Threats   
      
   The issue of hypersonic weapons development may seem like a strange   
   springboard for an argument rationalizing the need for studying   
   unidentified aerial phenomena. However, it is the obvious   
   uncertainty-and the concern-surrounding the former issue that makes   
   the latter so ripe for consideration.   
      
   Simply put, the United States would be foolish to ignore any apparent   
   aerospace technology which members of its military claim they have   
   encountered; a sentiment that should be extended to the leadership in   
   other countries around the world as well. Presently, as the United   
   States military continues to collect data on apparent aerial (and   
   sometimes transmedium) technologies of unknown provenance, a variety   
   of possibilities as to their origin remain on the table. Yet whatever   
   their ultimate source may prove to be, ignoring them is unacceptable   
   with respect to the speed at which the current battlefield environment   
   is advancing.   
      
   The possibility that some of these unidentified technologies might   
   stem from adversarial nations is only one of the national security   
   risks they might pose. While some US officials emphasize the   
   concerning possibility that UAP could have origins in countries like   
   China or Russia, one must stop and consider what the military   
   leadership in those countries may be thinking; might they be equally   
   concerned that the objects in question hail from within black programs   
   developing advanced technologies here stateside?

   Imagine an instance where unidentified aerial phenomena might instead   
   become a misidentified aerial object-that is, to be mistaken for   
   US surveillance technologies by one of our adversaries-what might   
   the response to such a situation be?   
      
   Furthermore, what if UAP represents nothing in the inventories of the   
   United States, Russian, or Chinese militaries, but one of these   
   nations was nonetheless able to capture and replicate its   
   capabilities? Such a development could result in a technological   
   explosion capable of placing other world powers at a tremendous   
   disadvantage, militarily and otherwise.   
      
   Are these really chances the United States can afford to take?   
      
   No, they are not# and it is this realization that should lend weight   
   to the case for the recently proposed amendment to the forthcoming   
   Fiscal Year 2022 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA,   
   H.R. 4350). The Gillibrand Amendment, as it has come to be known, not   
   only calls for the establishment of a new Anomaly Surveillance and   
   Resolution Office (ASRO) within the DOD or some similar suitable   
   military body, but also outlines a detailed plan for how the United   
   States can intelligently collect data on unidentified aerospace   
   technologies, and make assessments about their actions and capabilities.   
      
   In short, the United States can, and should, address unidentified   
   aerial phenomena. Doing so should be more than just a priority, since   
   it may also be one of the greatest assurances that we have in terms of   
   facing potential threats in the future. This remains true, regardless   
   of whether any such threats stem from the phenomena itself, since   
   allowing for the capture and exploitation of such advanced   
   technologies by our adversaries has potentially grave consequences.   
      
   In light of all this, the Gillibrand Amendment could represent one of   
   the most significant pieces of legislation in recent years, if not in   
   all of American history. Lawmakers should treat it as such, and take   
   the potential for future aerial threats that it seeks to address   
   seriously.
