Analyst notes — caveats & confidence

Document is an email chain discussing derivative classification review for UAP tearlines at the UNCLASSIFIED level. The tearlines themselves are the incident data. Two incidents present: 10 APR 2025 (12 seconds) and 11 APR 2025 (23 seconds). Each is recorded as a separate element but captured in a single incident object given the minimal data. The source document is primarily an administrative coordination record rather than a direct sensor report. Aircraft type, location, and observer identity are all unspecified or redacted. INDOPACOM centroid used.
