Summary findings:

- Lack of Coordination: The DoD has not used a coordinated approach to address UAP, leading to varying processes across different components and a lack of a comprehensive strategy to understand and protect against potential threats from UAPs.

- Role of Combatant Commands: The report suggests that combatant commands, responsible for security threats against the U.S., should play a key role in detecting, reporting, and identifying UAP incidents.

- Insufficient Integration: Existing DoD components’ processes for UAP incidents largely exclude the role of geographic combatant commands.

- Varied Processes Among Services: In absence of comprehensive DoD guidance, different military services have developed their informal processes for UAP detection and reporting.

- Security Concerns: The lack of an overarching policy may pose a threat to military forces and national security.
