SAIC
Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) is a major American defense contractor founded in 1969, specializing in information technology, engineering, and defense systems. The corporation has deep historical ties to alleged UAP reverse engineering programs, maintains massive contracts with key facilities including Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane, and has conducted extensive research into human consciousness phenomena including remote viewing and psychokinesis. SAIC has been repeatedly identified by whistleblowers and researchers as one of the "keepers of the secrets" regarding UAP technology exploitation programs, with former employees alleging that black budget funds for classified programs are concealed within legitimate contract vehicles.

Background and Operations
SAIC was established in 1969 and has grown to become one of the largest defense contractors in the United States, enjoying numerous multi-million and multi-billion dollar contracts with the Department of Defense, Department of Energy, intelligence agencies, and military research facilities. The company's official portfolio includes:
- Information technology systems
- Engineering and technical services
- Defense and intelligence systems development
- Weapons testing and evaluation support
- Mission engineering and integration
- Scientific research and development
SAIC is eligible under the DoD's Corporate Portfolio Program, which provides defense industrial base corporations access to DoD executives, scientists, and management with broad access to Special Access Program (SAP) portfolios — both acknowledged and unacknowledged programs.
Contracts with Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane
SAIC maintains an exceptionally extensive contracting relationship with Naval Surface Warfare Center Crane in Indiana, the alleged site of the Off-World Technologies Division witnessed by RA. Notable contracts include:
Multi-Million Dollar Contract Series
- 2024: $63 million contract to support NSWC Crane's hypersonic advanced concepts (article pulled from SAIC's website around June 2024)
- 2023: $240 million IDIQ contract to support Crane's weapon division instrumentation platform (article pulled from SAIC's website around January 2024)
- 2020: $133 million contract providing mission engineering and integration support for the maneuver engagement and surveillance section of Crane, falling under special warfare and expeditionary systems R&D
- 2010: $351 million contract for technical engineering services to NSWC Crane, specifically supporting Joint Special Operations Response Department (JSOC) — the same department named alongside the CIA's Office of Global Access for UAP crash retrieval and collections operations
Suspicious Article Removals
Multiple SAIC press releases announcing Crane contracts have been systematically removed from the company's public website, raising questions about deliberate concealment of the scope and nature of work at the facility. The timing of these removals (2024) coincides with increased public scrutiny of UAP-related defense contracting.
On-Site Presence
- SAIC is one of the largest employers at Crane, with over 2,489 private contract workers on-site
- The company maintains active job postings for contractor positions at Crane
- SAIC employees have been documented providing weapons testing instruction at Crane
- SAIC manager Diane Wilson described her team as "totally focused on bringing the best technology and the best weapons into the hands of the warfighter" — language remarkably similar to RA's description of his instructor at the Off-World Technologies Division
Connection to UAP Programs
Whistleblower Testimony: Denise McKenzie
Former SAIC employee Denise McKenzie appeared in Steven Greer's 2001 Disclosure Project briefing and provided explosive testimony regarding the company's financial practices:
- In hundreds of millions of dollars awarded to SAIC for government contracts, most contracts had almost zero associated activity
- McKenzie concluded that black budget money is hidden within legitimate programs and contracts to fund classified projects
- After discussing these discrepancies internally, McKenzie faced harassment within the company
- This testimony established SAIC as a primary conduit for concealing UAP-related funding within conventional defense budgets
MJ-12 and "Crown Jewel" Designation
- In the Steven Greer 1996 briefing to Congress, SAIC was labeled as a "crown jewel" relating to UAP projects and facilities
- Commander Will Miller, a key figure in the Wilson-Davis Memo, identified SAIC as one of the prominent contractors who are "keepers of the secrets" regarding UAP programs
- Catherine Austin Fitts's research paper stated that a "large proportion of the nation's wealth is being illegally diverted into secret unaccountable channels" to support black budget military R&D, with SAIC and Lockheed Martin identified as two of the contractors responsible for obfuscating data on siphoned DoD funds, leading to a failed DoD general accounting office audit
Link to AARO Director Sean Kirkpatrick
Former AARO director Sean Kirkpatrick has published patents under SAIC, establishing a direct professional relationship between the company and the individual tasked with investigating UAP reports for the Department of Defense. This connection has raised questions about potential conflicts of interest in UAP investigations.
Historical UAP Involvement
SAIC's involvement in UAP-related work appears to span decades, with connections to:
- Foreign technology analysis and reverse engineering programs
- Consciousness research programs potentially applicable to UAP-operator interfaces
- Crash retrieval logistics and material analysis
- Classified propulsion research including electrogravitics
Consciousness Research and Psionic Programs
SAIC conducted extensive research into human consciousness phenomena, remote viewing, and psychokinesis — fields directly relevant to RA's testimony that the technology at Crane "interacted with consciousness" and responded differently to different individuals.
Post-Stargate Continuation
While the CIA's Stargate Program (remote viewing and psychic phenomena research) was officially terminated in 1995, SAIC continued consciousness research internally after the programs moved out of direct military oversight. Key SAIC research documents include:
- "Protocols for the Use of Human Subjects" (1991) from SAIC's Cognitive Science Laboratory
- "A Comprehensive Research Plan for Anomalous Mental Phenomena" (1991) submitted to the Defense Intelligence Agency
- "Evaluation of a Program on Anomalous Mental Phenomena" (1995), which documented SAIC's evaluation of SRI International's Stargate Program to guide continuation of research internally
- "An Assessment of the Evidence for Psychic Funding" (date unknown)
Psionic Terminology
SAIC coined specific terminology for consciousness-based phenomena:
- Anomalous Cognition: describing extrasensory perception / sixth sense
- Anomalous Perturbation: describing psychokinesis
Navy Interest in Sixth Sense
A now-deleted 2012 Office of Naval Research paper explicitly discussed research into a "human sixth sense" (extrasensory perception), demonstrating ongoing Navy interest in consciousness-based capabilities — directly relevant to the consciousness-interactive UAP technology allegedly housed at the Navy's Crane facility.
Electrogravitics and Propulsion Research
SAIC published a paper around 1990 titled "Electric Propulsion Study," which discussed electrogravidics in reference to T. Townsend Brown and UAP propulsion mechanisms. This study, referenced by researcher Jesse Michaels, directly relates to:
- Alleged reverse-engineered craft such as the Flux Liner and Alien Reproduction Vehicle (ARV) described by aerospace illustrator Mark McCandlish
- Human-made triangular craft using electrogravitic propulsion, which RA stated he has heard credible reports of from military contacts
- The propulsion systems potentially being reverse engineered from recovered UAP technology
Connection to Other Facilities
Sandia National Laboratories
SAIC maintains massive contracts with Sandia National Laboratories, which has its own documented UAP connections:
- 2013: 5-year, $228 million IT consolidation contract with Sandia
- 2023 technology transfer between NSWC Crane, Sandia Labs, and other participants for advanced hypersonic technology
- Sandia's historical connection to UAP crash material storage at Kirtland Air Force Base, as documented in the 1950s Del Rio, Texas crash retrieval case
- Attorney Daniel Sheehan implicated defense contractor Radiance Technologies' prompt global strike hypersonic program as leveraging reverse-engineered UAP technologies — notably, both SAIC and Sandia are connected to Crane's hypersonics programs
Naval Air Station Pax River
SAIC has extensive contracts with Naval Air Station Pax River in Virginia, Crane's sister facility, where aerospace engineer Salvador Pais filed patents for a triangular/diamond-shaped anti-gravity craft exhibiting quantum vacuum manipulation — supported by Naval Air Enterprise CTO James Sheehy and then approved despite Navy colleagues having no knowledge of Pais or the programs.
Leadership and Revolving Door
Ellen Lord, former Under Secretary of Defense for Acquisition and Sustainment who established the Corporate Portfolio Program in 2020 (granting contractors like SAIC access to SAP portfolios), joined SAIC as a strategic adviser after leaving the Pentagon in 2021 — a classic example of the revolving door between defense oversight and contractor employment.
Connection to Alleged Off-World Technologies Division
Based on RA's testimony and investigative analysis:
- RA was taken underground at Crane by a "skinny private contractor" who led weapons training and casually identified the area as the "off-world technologies division"
- SAIC is the largest private contractor presence at Crane with over 2,489 employees
- SAIC employees are documented providing weapons training at the facility
- SAIC's contracts with Crane include R&D for "special capabilities branch" work under special warfare and expeditionary systems (potentially the contractual vehicle for the Off-World Technologies Division)
- The company's documented consciousness research aligns with RA's testimony about consciousness-interactive technology
- SAIC's historical identification as a "keeper of UAP secrets" and propulsion research aligns with the nature of technology RA observed
