AAWSAP Contract Modification P00001, September 2009

Department of WarIncident: September 2, 2009Washington, D.C.542 KBPartly redacted

This document is an administrative or programmatic record related to the Advanced Aerospace Weapon System Applications Program (AAWSAP), a Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA)-administered program active from 2008 to 2012. AAWSAP’s official scope of work identified 12 technical research areas relating to potential aerospace threats over a time horizon of more than 40 years. As an administrative record, the file documents how AAWSAP was scoped, organized, tasked, funded, or described at a particular point in time.

This September 2009 contract modification formally extends the Bigelow Aerospace Advanced Space Studies (BAASS) contract through 30 September 2009, revises the option-year dates to run from 1 October 2009 through 30 September 2010, and exercises the first option year subject to the availability of appropriated funds. The document carries forward the same major deliverable categories as the original contract.

The description is the government’s own, from war.gov/UFO, released on September 18, 2026. The Pentagon calls these unresolved cases — publishing a file does not mean it shows anything anomalous.
