Dylan Borland

Dylan Borland is a former U.S. Air Force geospatial intelligence specialist who worked with classified imaging and surveillance systems before coming forward as a UAP whistleblower in 2025.

The 2012 Langley Incident

On an unspecified date in 2012, while stationed at Langley Air Force Base in Virginia, Borland witnessed what he describes as a silent triangular craft hovering approximately 100 feet above the ground. According to his testimony, the object displayed a glowing, fluid-like exterior and remained visible for roughly 8-10 seconds before accelerating away at an extraordinary velocity. Borland's background in geospatial intelligence and imaging systems suggests a trained observer, lending credibility to his detailed characterization of the craft's unusual properties, particularly its unusual non-rigid outer surface appearance.

Thirteen Years of Silence and Retaliation

What makes Borland's case particularly striking is the 13-year gap between his sighting and first public disclosure in September 2025. During this extended period, Borland claims he endured systematic government retaliation for his knowledge of classified UAP programs. His allegations include workplace harassment, deliberate obstruction of security clearance renewals, interference with his ability to obtain employment in classified aerospace and defense contracting, and broader career sabotage designed to silence him. These retaliation claims align with emerging patterns documented in accounts from other UAP whistleblowers who came forward in 2024-2025.

Congressional Testimony and Disclosure

On September 9, 2025, Borland testified publicly for the first time before the House Oversight Committee's Task Force on the Declassification of Federal Secrets. His appearance marked a significant moment in the disclosure movement, as he provided direct eyewitness testimony regarding both the craft encounter and the documented pattern of government obstruction he faced. Borland's testimony came amid a broader wave of 2025 military and intelligence community whistleblower disclosures, positioning him alongside contemporaries like Jeffrey Nuccetelli and Jake Barber, who also came forward with UAP encounter claims and allegations of institutional cover-up.

Program Knowledge

Borland claims direct knowledge of classified UAP programs operating within the U.S. government and defense establishment. His security clearance background and technical expertise in classified imaging systems suggest he had access to classified UAP-related materials and intelligence assessments. The specificity of his claims and his willingness to testify before Congress suggest a committed effort to bypass institutional secrecy surrounding UAP evidence and retrieval programs.
