ASSESSMENT ASSESSMENT // AEROSPACE CORPORATION FFRDC Also: Aerospace Corporation, Aerospace FFRDC, Space Force FFRDC, Project West Wing, Aerospace Corporation UAP

01 Executive_Summary

ASSESSMENT: The Aerospace Corporation is the FFRDC (Federally Funded Research and Development Center) for the US Space Force — and Eric Davis worked there 2019-2024 during the UAP Task Force era. Founded 1960. Nonprofit. 'Trusted technical advisor to the government on complex space enterprise problems.' 'Provides unsurpassed levels of support to both immediate and long-term military and intelligence space programs.' PROJECT WEST WING: 'Plays an essential role in providing understanding and awareness of the threat across the space enterprise through technical intelligence analysis and research.' RELEVANT RESEARCH: 'Exotic Space Warfare: Military Importance of Sustained Maneuver' (December 2024) — 'nontraditional solutions that protect space assets,' 'sustained space maneuver (SSM) as exotic space warfare tactic.' 'In-Space Novel Propulsion Technologies' — nuclear, electric, chemical, solar. 'Space Agenda 2025' — 16 chapters on space policy. DAVIS CONNECTION: Davis worked at Aerospace 2019-2024 (during UAPTF 2020-2022, AARO 2022+, Grusch whistleblower 2022-2023). FFRDCs have access to classified information across multiple programs — Davis could connect UAP observations to classified program data. Aerospace could be the 'honest broker' connecting UAP to classified programs. If UAP 'descend from space' (Fravor), Space Force needs to understand them — Aerospace FFRDC is the natural analyst.
