Awatchdog group seeking access to unidentified flying object footage has been rejected with the unambiguous message that, due to heavy classification, none of the government’s media on UFOs will be released.
The Black Vault reported this week that starting in April 2020 it sought to acquire all "Unidentified Aerial Phenomena" videos within the files of Naval Air Systems Command. Three such videos had already been leaked from government databases before being officially released by NAVAIR.
The division subsequently denied that request, citing no such videos in its possession. A request filed with the Office of Naval Intelligence was met with a similar response.
A third request filed with the Office of the Chief of Naval Operations was finally met with a comprehensive rejection, one that said "the requested videos contain sensitive information pertaining to Unidentified Aerial Phenomena and are classified and are exempt from disclosure in their entirety."
The agency also said: "The release of this information will harm national security as it may provide adversaries valuable information regarding Department of Defense/Navy operations, vulnerabilities, and/or capabilities. No portions of the videos can be segregated for release."
The Black Vault noted that the CNO offered an uncharacteristically thorough explanation for its rejection in what may have been an attempt to head off an appeal.
"While three UAP videos were released in the past, the facts specific to those three videos are unique in that those videos were initially released via unofficial channels before official release," the agency said, noting that "given the amount of information in the public domain regarding these encounters, it was possible to release the files without further damage to national security."
The Black Vault said it nevertheless "filed an appeal seeking the release of the videos denied."
The link I gave you has generated zero dollars for the man being interviewed.
The fact that there are fraudsters out there does not invalidate everyone in the field.
I remember some college kids made a platform with some lights and helium balloons and sent it aloft. I forget where.
The FAA was not amused......................
That’s all of them.
Or hung it from a string.
Wasn’t there a FAKE picture of a saucer-shaped UFO parked on the flight deck of an aircraft carrier? If fact, I also saw one with a Star Wars X-Wing after a bad carrier landing.
And now all UFO footage is deeply classified?
Can I have another look at that saucer picture?
80 years is a very long development time.
Dunno what that is from, or supposed to be, but the shadows from the chopper are much more distinct and those from the object are difuse and don’t appear to cast at the same angle either.
I was at a UFO conference many years ago and the guy sitting next to me was showing off these super-clear Billy Meier “ashcan top” photos he had purchased at one of the booths.
The miracle was that I managed to keep a straight face.

I could make a better fake then that in PS or Gimp. I wouldn’t want to though. A good chop takes a lot of time and attention to detail. I don’t understand how people think that faking something is a good form of attention. But there are people perfectly happy to cheat at a game to inflate their ego, as if they actually accomplished something real.
100%
I don’t know why I was being so judgmental. Some people are trying to be artsy or edgy and just having fun. :/
Pilots during WWII saw UFOs. They called them “Foo Fighters.”
Speaking of witnesses ...
