# AAWSAP Objectives Contracts and Deliverable Gaps

## Answer First

AAWSAP's released administrative record establishes a funded, structured program to investigate potential aerospace breakthroughs. It does not turn every commissioned idea into a demonstrated capability. The most revealing comparison is between the required deliverables and the material actually present in this release.

## Source Basis

[D110, AAWSAP Statement of Objectives, July 2008](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D110_AAWSAP-Statement-of-Objectives-July-18-2008.pdf), [D111, AAWSAP Solicitation and Original Order, September 2008](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D111_AAWSAP-Solicitation-and-Original-Order-September-22-2008.pdf), [D112, AAWSAP Contract Modification P00001, September 2009](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D112_AAWSAP-Contract-Modification-P00001-September-2-2009.pdf), [D113, AAWSAP Contract Modification P00002, February 2010](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D113_AAWSAP-Contract-Modification-P00002-February-2-2010.pdf), [D114, AAWSAP Contract Modification P00003, May 2010](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D114_AAWSAP-Contract-Modification-P00003-May-18-%202010.pdf), [D115, AAWSAP Contract Modification P00004, May 2010](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D115_AAWSAP-Contract-Modification-P00004-May-18-2010.pdf) and [D116, AAWSAP Contract Modification P00005, September 2010](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D116_AAWSAP-Contract-Modification-P00005-September-28-2010.pdf) form the seven-record objectives/contract family. Page references below use PDF page numbers, not handwritten or printed internal pagination.

## Observation and Contract Sequence

| Record | Source-backed finding | What it does not establish |
| --- | --- | --- |
| [D110, AAWSAP Statement of Objectives, July 2008 — PDF page 1](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D110_AAWSAP-Statement-of-Objectives-July-18-2008.pdf&page=1) | Twelve study areas, including lift, propulsion, power, spatial/temporal translation, signatures, human interfaces and effects; a threat horizon through 2050 | That any listed technology existed in operational hardware |
| [D110, AAWSAP Statement of Objectives, July 2008 — PDF page 3](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D110_AAWSAP-Statement-of-Objectives-July-18-2008.pdf&page=3) | Monthly progress, plans for each area at 60 days, research reports and briefings by month ten, followed by an integrated assessment | Delivery or acceptance of those outputs |
| [D111, AAWSAP Solicitation and Original Order, September 2008 — PDF page 1](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D111_AAWSAP-Solicitation-and-Original-Order-September-22-2008.pdf&page=1) | September 2008 award instrument identifies BAASS; the schedule connects the objectives to deliverables | Successful technical validation |
| [D112, AAWSAP Contract Modification P00001, September 2009 — PDF page 3](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D112_AAWSAP-Contract-Modification-P00001-September-2-2009.pdf&page=3) | Option-year schedule and deliverable line items | All option years exercised or funded |
| [D113, AAWSAP Contract Modification P00002, February 2010 — PDF page 3](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D113_AAWSAP-Contract-Modification-P00002-February-2-2010.pdf&page=3) | February 2010 modification adds $11,948,810 and states total obligations of $21,948,810; reduced funding affects deliverables and technical risk | A complete expenditure audit or evidence that the total bought a working craft |
| [D114, AAWSAP Contract Modification P00003, May 2010 — PDF page 2](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D114_AAWSAP-Contract-Modification-P00003-May-18-%202010.pdf&page=2) | Changes the contracting representative and limits guidance to existing scope, schedule and value | New technical authority or a new research discovery |
| [D115, AAWSAP Contract Modification P00004, May 2010 — PDF page 1](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D115_AAWSAP-Contract-Modification-P00004-May-18-2010.pdf&page=1) | The released item is a one-page contract distribution list headed P00004 | The substantive terms of a modification that are not on that page |
| [D116, AAWSAP Contract Modification P00005, September 2010 — PDF page 1](/?open=Release_6%2FDOW-UAP-D116_AAWSAP-Contract-Modification-P00005-September-28-2010.pdf&page=1) | Extends performance to December 21, 2010 and states no additional funding is required for the extension | Continuous later activity or a new funding increment |

The $10 million difference between the total obligation and the added obligation is arithmetic from D113, not a separate reconstruction of every payment. Do not sum the repeated schedules as though each were new funding.

## Deliverable Gap

The 37 DIRDs in this release are technical studies, mapped in [C116 - AAWSAP Materials Signatures and Sensor Engineering](/?open=Release_6%2FAnalysis%2FC116-AAWSAP-Materials-Signatures-and-Sensor-Engineering.md), [C117 - AAWSAP Propulsion Gravity and Energy Research](/?open=Release_6%2FAnalysis%2FC117-AAWSAP-Propulsion-Gravity-and-Energy-Research.md) and [C118 - AAWSAP Biology Cognition and Control Systems](/?open=Release_6%2FAnalysis%2FC118-AAWSAP-Biology-Cognition-and-Control-Systems.md). The Release 6 catalog does not separately identify the full monthly-report series, all project management plans, the incorporated contractor proposal, or the final integrated threat assessment. Their absence from this bundle does not prove that they were never produced, remain classified, or contain recovered-technology findings.

## Explanation Lanes

**Conventional program reading:** long-range acquisition intelligence commissioned broad scientific forecasting, including risky concepts, within an ordinary contracting structure.

**Disclosure-forward question:** a broad technical agenda could also be useful to interpreting unusual observed capabilities. Establishing that connection requires tasking, case references, accepted deliverables or an explicit evidence chain. Similar vocabulary between a DIRD and a sighting is insufficient.

## Working Assessment

High confidence in the visible scope, obligation figures and administrative distinctions; low confidence in any inference from those records to operational exotic technology. This passes the neutrality gate by keeping the possible connection testable while refusing to treat research procurement as proof of possession.

## Follow-Up

Prioritize the proposal, accepted deliverable register, final integrated assessment and modification attachments. They can distinguish what was requested, delivered, evaluated and validated. Use [C124 - Release 6 Cross Release Synthesis and Evidence Gaps](/?open=Release_6%2FAnalysis%2FC124-Release-6-Cross-Release-Synthesis-and-Evidence-Gaps.md) for the cross-release implications.
