Editing UAP=SAP (section)

== Hypothesis Overview ==

The '''UAP = USAP''' hypothesis holds that:

# Many UAP sightings are misinterpreted USAP activity, including advanced aerospace systems, novel propulsion platforms, and sensor technologies operating under deep secrecy.

# UAP narratives serve strategic purposes; government agencies may allow or encourage public confusion about UAPs as a form of '''maskirovka'''—military deception designed to mislead adversaries about actual capabilities.

# Historical precedent supports concealment. The hypothesis draws parallels with operations such as '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Fortitude Operation Fortitude]''' and '''[https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Operation_Bodyguard Operation Bodyguard]''' during World War II, where fake troop movements and misinformation were used to mask the true location of the D-Day invasion ('''[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Operation_Overlord Operation Overlord]''').

# Transparency may be counterproductive. Advocates argue that full transparency in national security contexts is not always desirable, likening the pursuit of unfiltered openness to a “mania” that can compromise sensitive defense operations.
