✦ AI summary

This two-page email chain (banner SECRET//NOFORN, struck through) concerns confirming that two UAP incident tearlines can be released at the UNCLASSIFIED level. One email, signed by a PAROC Intel Data Analysis Technician Team Lead (12 AF / DET 3), says that after a phone call with the unit that flies the platform, the two lines are UNCLASSIFIED and that adding the AOR as INDOPACOM is also UNCLASSIFIED. Another email asks for confirmation that the tearlines below are UNCLASSIFIED and that the AOR INDOPACOM can be used. A reply from an Information Disclosure Analyst at the Office of the Under Secretary of Defense for Intelligence and Security states the tearlines are approved at the UNCLASSIFIED level and gives them: on 10 April 2025, a US aircraft observed 1x possible UAP for 12 seconds at 2353Z, flying at unknown altitude and speed, with no interference noted; and on 11 April 2025, a US aircraft observed 1x possible UAP for 23 seconds at 0007Z, also at unknown altitude and speed, with no interference noted. Names and some details are redacted.
