AARO Reporting Channel and Dashboard Update

The concrete communication in this window is AARO's reporting infrastructure update set in February 2026, where policy-facing submission guidance and public-case publication cadence are connected across official DoD pages and DVIDS release assets.¹²³

The reporting policy page identifies who may submit UAP-related program reports and binds service reporting to DoD command channels while also linking civilian pilot reports to the FAA pilot-report pathway.²

The January 2026 reporting-trends dashboard shows cases now covered through January 15, 2026, while the linked imagery pages record added cases that align with DoD-hosted DVIDS releases in December 2025 and January 2026.¹⁴⁵

This evidence chain shows the same AARO publication stack handling both reporting guidance and case-release evidence, which is how policy and reporting procedures are operationalized publicly during the window.¹²⁴⁵

  Origin and evidence chain

Primary evidence starts with AARO submission policy and reporting channels, then follows through the reporting-trend and imagery dashboards, and ends at each DVIDS case page with DoD-hosted date-posted metadata in the target period.^21453678910
