Description

Overview
Centro de Identificación Aeroespacial (CIAE), successor to CEFAE (founded 2011 under the Argentine Air Force, Fuerza Aérea Argentina). Argentina's official military UAP investigation program.

Methodology
Conducts field investigations of sightings reported by military pilots, air traffic controllers, and the public. Publishes annual reports. Military-institutional framework with public reporting — similar to the Chilean SEFAA model.

Strengths and Weaknesses
As an institutional military program, CIAE has access to radar data and flight safety protocols. More transparent than comparable programs in other Latin American countries. Cooperation with CEFORA (civilian counterpart). Limited international visibility, no English-language publications.
