ORDTYP/GENADMIN/CJCS// NARR/ (U) This Joint Staff J3 GENADMIN message provides guidance to CCMDs and Services 1) to report UAP worldwide, using the reporting template standards as prescribed below; 2) to report UAP to their respective counterintelligence element; and 3) to transfer UAP and UAP-related material to AARO. This GENADMIN is effective immediately. GENTEXT/SITUATION/1. (CUI) The US Government has observed UAP in or near the territory and/or operating areas of the United States, of its allies, and of its adversaries, and observing, identifying, and potentially mitigating UAP has become a growing priority for US policymakers, lawmakers, and warfighters. The potentially ubiquitous presence of UAP defines the national security implications of those anomalies, which range from operational hazards and threats to technological and intelligence surprise to adversaries' strategic miscalculations. It is imperative that DoD provide UAP incident, incursion, and engagement-as defined in paragraph 3.B.-reporting, data, and material for the Department's detection and mitigation of potential threats; exploitation of advanced technologies; and informing policymaker and warfighter decisions. The Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff (CJCS) sets the appropriate Chairman's Critical Information Requirement (CCIR) criteria and ensures each CCMD and Service is in receipt of the Reporting Matrix. Incursions, incidents, and engagements that meet CCIR criteria are reported in accordance with CJCS and DoD reporting requirements. Each CCMD and Service ensures the appropriate guidance is in place to receive the respective reports from Service Component Commands and subordinates. GENTEXT/MISSION/2. 2.A. (CUI) CCMDs and Services report all UAP incidents, incursions, and engagements using the below, standardized reporting requirements and templates; transfer all data from UAP incidents, incursions, and engagements, as described; and recover and transfer all UAP objects and materials, as described. Additionally, all CCMDs and Services notify their counterintelligence element of UAP events, in accordance with their respective counterintelligence reporting requirements. 2.B. (CUI) Incidents, incursions, and engagements by identifiable, non-anomalous phenomena (e.g., sUAS and other capabilities or materials that do not exceed known or predicted performance envelopes) continue to be reported through established processes and mechanisms. CUI CUI PAGE 3 OF 9 REF C provides instructions to CCMDs and Services for reporting sUAS. 2.C. (CUI) Recovery and transfer of identifiable, non-anomalous items of foreign origin that have military potential or applications continue to be managed by the DoD FMP. REF D provides responsibilities for the management and operation of the DoD FMP. GENTEXT/EXECUTION/3. 3.A. (U) CONCEPT OF OPERATIONS 3.A.1. (CUI) Respective subordinates of DoD, CCMDs, and Services will report all observed UAP incidents, incursions, and engagements to AARO, through their respective Combatant Command Joint Operations Center and Service Watch Cells. AARO receives, databases, and analyzes UAP reporting, and AARO provides stakeholders its peer-reviewed analytic conclusions. 3.A.2. (CUI) Respective subordinates of DoD, CCMDs, and Services send notification of all UAP incidents, incursions, and engagements to their respective counterintelligence elements. 3.A.3. (CUI) Respective subordinates of DoD, CCMDs, and Services coordinate with AARO to determine the appropriate location and entity to transfer all UAP data for incidents, incursions, and engagements in raw, unedited, unmodified form and in a manner consistent with the data's classification. 3.A.4. (CUI) Respective subordinates of DoD, CCMDs, and Services coordinate with AARO to determine the appropriate location(s) and entities to transfer all UAP objects and material of incidents, incursions, and engagements in unmodified form, in a manner consistent with the objects' and materials' classification and applicable hazardous-materials transport requirements. 3.A.5. (CUI) AARO coordinates across the US Government to identify the appropriate agency to assist in shipping, transferring, receiving, storing, examining, etc., of material and data associated with the UAP incident. 3.B. (U) DEFINITIONS 3.B.1. (U) UNIDENTIFIED ANOMALOUS PHENOMENA (UAP) are sources of anomalous detections in one or more domain (i.e., airborne, seaborne, spaceborne, and/or transmedium) that are not yet attributable to known actors and that demonstrate behaviors not readily understood by sensors or observers. "Anomalous detections" include but are not limited to phenomena that demonstrate apparent capabilities or material that exceed known performance envelopes. A UAP may consist of one or more unidentified anomalous objects and may persist over an extended period of time. 3.B.1.A. (U) SPACEBORNE UAP are sources of anomalous detections above the Karman Line (i.e., 100km above Earth's mean sea level). 3.B.1.B. (U) AIRBORNE UAP are sources of anomalous detections between Earth's mean sea level and the Karman Line. 3.B.1.C. (U) SEABORNE UAP are sources of anomalous detections at or below Earth's mean sea level. 3.B.1.D. (U) TRANSMEDIUM UAP are sources of anomalous detections that transit more than one domain. CUI CUI PAGE 4 OF 9 3.B.2. (U) UAP OBJECTS are corporeal artifacts of unidentified anomalous phenomena. UAP may contain one or more UAP objects (e.g., airborne craft exhibiting apparent anomalous capabilities). UAP material are samples, in whole or in part, of UAP objects (e.g., debris). 3.B.3. (U) UAP DATUM is any record of UAP detection, observation, identification, effects (on persons or equipment), mitigation, and material-exploitation. UAP datum includes but is not limited to observer, debriefer, and investigator notes and reports; still photographs and full-motion video; audio recordings; and platform-and sensor-instrument recordings. 3.B.4.A. (U) A UAP INCIDENT is any occurrence where UAP is detected by persons or sensors. 3.B.4.B. (U) A UAP INCURSION is any UAP incident in, on, or near US military installations, operating areas, training areas, special use airspace (SUA), proximity operations, and/or other areas of interest. Other areas of interest include but are not limited to US critical infrastructure and national defense equities of Allied military and intelligence coalitions (e.g., FIVE EYE). 3.B.4.C. (U) A UAP ENGAGEMENT is a kinetic or non-kinetic response to a UAP, intended to deny, disrupt, or destroy the phenomenon and/or its object(s). 3.B.5. (U) A UAP INTERROGATION is the elicitation of UAP location, capabilities, characteristics, and/or intent using passive and/or active sensing capabilities-including but not limited to electro-optical/imagery, infrared/thermal, radiofrequency/radar, light/laser/lidar/ladar, electromagnetic, gravitational, and radioactive means. 3.B.6. (U) UAP ATTRIBUTION is the assessed natural or artificial source of the phenomenon and includes solar, weather, tidal events; US government, scientific, industry, and private activities; and foreign (allied or adversary) government, scientific, industry, and private activities. 3.B.7. (U) A UAP HAZARD is a safety risk to persons, materiel, or information (e.g., from collision) by UAP that do not demonstrate hostile intent. 3.B.8. (U) A UAP THREAT is a force-protection and/or national-security risk to persons, materiel, or information by UAP that demonstrate hostile intent. 3.B.9. (U) A UAP-REACTION is the apparent UAP response to stimuli, including but not limited to UAP detection, observation, interrogation and/or engagement. 3.B.10. (U) DATE(S) OF DETECTION is the period when the UAP was detected by persons and/or sensors. 3.B.11. (U) DATE OF ACQUISITION is the date when the UAP data and/or material was made available to the reporting element. When the reporting element, itself, detects the UAP, then the date of detection corresponds with the date of acquisition. 3.C. (U) UAP REPORTING 3.C.1. (U) UAP INCIDENT AND INCURSION REPORTS are completed and securely transmitted to Combatant Command Joint Operations Centers and Service Watch Centers no later than 96 hours after the event. Details of UAP-related health incidents (e.g., physiological, psychological effects and whether persistent or transitory) will be retained in service members' medical records but shall not/not be transmitted with the UAP report. 3.C.2. (U) UAP ENGAGEMENT REPORTS are completed and securely transmitted to Combatant Command Joint Operations Centers and Service CUI CUI PAGE 5 OF 9 Watch Centers no later than 12 hours after the event or upon receipt of report from Allied/Partner/Host nation. 3.C.3.
