UAP / UFO OVERSIGHT COMMITTEE HEARING RECAP KEY CLIPS `
| Copy link to current segment

Time Text
It looks like we have a problem here that needs further investigation.
Yes.
The E-2 tracked it.
We never saw it on our radars, our fire control radars.
And I'm a former F-18 pilot with a decade of service in the U.S. Navy.
Navy.
I have experienced advanced UAP firsthand.
As we convene here, UAP are in our airspace.
These sightings are not rare or isolated, they are routine.
Military aircrew and commercial pilots, trained observers whose lives depend on accurate identification, are frequently witnessing these phenomena.
Parts of our government are aware of more about UAP than they let on.
After upgrades were made to our jet's radar systems, we began detecting unknown objects operating in our airspace.
The object, described as a dark gray or black cube inside of a clear sphere, came within 50 feet of the lead aircraft and was estimated to be 5 to 15 feet in diameter.
Soon, these encounters became so frequent that aircrew would discuss the risk of UAP as part of their regular pre-flight briefs.
Do we have the bodies of the pilots who piloted this craft?
Biologics came with some of these recoveries, yeah.
Were they, I guess, human or non-human biologics?
Non-human, and that was the assessment of people with direct knowledge on the program I talked to that are currently still on the program.
Now, if the fastest plane on Earth was trying to do these maneuvers that you saw, would it be capable of doing that?
No, not even close.
The American people deserve to know what is happening in our skies.
It is long overdue.
And I yield back, Mr. Chairman.
Mr. August.
Thank you, Mr. Chairman, and thank you all for being here and the courage it took to come forward and again the sacrifice that each of you have made.
I serve on the National Security Subcommittee for the Financial Services Committee, so I really want to stay in the national security lane, if I may.
So when we think about traditional adversaries and both us towards them and them towards us, you know, we probe their capabilities.
We look for weaknesses and we collect that data, that reconnaissance for in the event we need it in the future.
For each of you, yes or no question, based off of your own experience or the data that you've been privy to, is there any indication that these UAPs could be essentially collecting reconnaissance information?
Mr. Graves?
Yes.
Mr. Grush?
Fair assessment, yeah.
Mr. Fravor?
Very possible.
Again, in the national security vein, is it possible that these UAPs would be probing our capabilities?
Yes or no, Mr. Graves?
Yes.
Rush?
Yes.
Fravor?
Definitely.
Is it possible that these UAPs are testing for vulnerabilities in our current systems?
Yes.
Yes.
Possible.
Do you feel, based off of your experience and information that you've been privy to, that these UAPs provide an existential threat to the national security of the United States?
Mr. Graves?
Potentially.
Yes, sir, potentially.
Same answer, potentially.
I'd say definitely, potentially.
Mr. Graves and Fravor, in the event that your encounters have become hostile, would you have had the capability to defend yourself, your crew, your aircraft?
Absolutely not.
Sir?
No.
Based off of the information that you've been privy to, is there any indication that these UAPs are interested in our nuclear technology and capabilities?
Yes.
By external observation, sure, that could be a fair assessment, yeah.
Yes.
Is there any indication the Department of Energy is involved in UAP data collection and housing?
I don't have an answer.
I can't confirm or deny that in a public setting.
Could you do it in a secure setting?
Yes.
Mr. Fravor?
No, I don't know.
Mr. Chairman, I think I'm the last member to go, but there clearly is a threat to the national security of the United States of America.
As members of Congress, we have a responsibility to maintain oversight and be aware of these activities so that, if appropriate, we take action.
I would encourage the Chairman to demand that we have Any and all, but in particular Mr. Grush, talked to us in a skiff.
And if that access is denied, I will personally volunteer to initiate the Holman Rule against any personnel or any program or any agency that denies access to Congress.
There clearly is a threat to the national security of the United States of America.
