The article seems to imply that UFO disinformation was a previous strategy that they are trying to move away from. Plausibly it went too far, causing a backlash against UFOlogists, making pilots wary of reporting genuine anomalies for fear of being labelled a wacko. If you suspect your enemies are flying new capabilities, you want your people to be reporting it.

- BugheadTorpeda6 1y agoYep. That's my impression as well. It makes sense and seems like a good move. The whole thing was silly in the first place and it's not like almost everybody that has bothered to look into it didn't already suspect it was cooked up bullshit.
