Pentagon says it’s received 291 UFO sightings over past year: Warns some craft appeared to display ‘unusual maneuverability’ and ‘high-speed Travel

The Pentagon‘s dedicated UFO investigations office has fielded at least 291 UFO cases within the past year, according to a report made public late Wednesday night.

Some of these seemingly advanced craft appeared to exhibit ‘concerning performance characteristics,’ the Military’s UFO investigators wrote, including ‘high-speed Travel’ and ‘unusual maneuverability.’

The report caps off a summer hot with extraterrestrial intrigue in Washington, where multiple government UFO whistleblowers have come forward, some publicly, some behind closed doors, with allegations of an illegal UFO crash retrieval program.

In fact, the Pentagon UFO head said ‘a lot’ of these UFO cases have been referred to law enforcement and, in some serious cases, US counterintelligence investigators.

While that new report concludes that none of 2023's airborne mysteries were the result of classified US programs, the Pentagon's UFO chief told reporters that a few UFOs displayed 'concerning' signs of being made by America's foreign adversaries

‘I am worried from a national security perspective,’ physicist Dr. Sean Kirkpatrick, director of the US Department of Defense’s All-domain Anomaly Resolution Office (AARO) told CNN in advance of his office’s new UFO report.

‘There are some indicators that are concerning that may be attributed to foreign activity,’ Dr. Kirkpatrick said, ‘and we are investigating those very hard.’

The physicist — whose classified work prior to assuming leadership of AARO included stints with the Air Force Research Laboratory and the CIA — expressed fear that foreign nations may be designing espionage drones specifically to evade US radar and other detection hardware.

‘There are ways to hide in our noise that always concern me,’ Kirkpatrick told CNN.

The annual report published Wednesday by Dr. Kirkpatrick and his team included a glossary to aid in the standardization of the once fringe topic of UFOs, now known professionally as UAP, for ‘Unidentified Anomalous Phenomenon.’

The glossary defined ‘UAP Threat’ as any UAP that demonstrate a national security risk to Military ‘persons, materiel, or information,’ in an indication of the priority AARO has given to intelligence and espionage risks posed by the phenomenon.

Despite Kirkpatrick's statement that his office is actively chasing down possible foreign espionage cases, AARO's annual UAP report drew a more measured conclusion: 'None of these UAP reports have been positively attributed to foreign activities'

US Air Force F-22 Raptors and F-16s were dispatched by the Biden White House to shoot down the sedan-sized UFO and others spotted over Canada’s Yukon territory and the Great Lakes north of Michigan.

Kirkpatrick’s UFO office plans to work with the US Navy and the National Intelligence Manager for Military Integration (NIM-MIL) to improve the speed and quality of reporting on undersea UAP or sea-to-air transmedium UAP.

At least one longtime UFO researcher, government open records advocate John Greenewald, Jr., described the Pentagon’s new policies as ‘a weird mixture’ of ‘increased excessive secrecy surrounding UAP’ and ‘preaching about ‘transparency.”

Greenewald has noted new difficulties in obtaining government records on UFOs via the US Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) in the years since the creation of dedicated UAP investigative mandates internally within the Pentagon.
